Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Dusty Answer" by Rosamond Lehmann is a novel published in 1927. Judith Earle grows up in a large riverside house, her world shaped by five cousins next door who are her only childhood companions. As friendships evolve into romantic complications, Judith leaves for Cambridge, where relationships deepen and desires blur boundaries. The novel became a bestseller and sparked literary scandal for its frank treatment of sexuality, with critics calling it both corrupting and an epitome of its era's spirit.
