Description
Judith Kozanski longs for a fuller life than seems possible in her East End home, and by winning a scholarship to the University she takes her first step towards freedom. But the wider atmosphere serves only to deepen her antagonism; the perpetual friction between environment and temperament makes her moody and quarrelsome. She falls in love with Sergei Asarov, a Russian poet , who belongs to the life she so ardently covets, but soon the pinpricks of disappointment deepen into bitter disillusionment.
