I have just finished the book today.

To me it was interesting to read Dr. Glass thoughts about the law and moral and he even mentions Dostojevski at one point. It must have been a shock, that a doctor could actually say that he did not agree with his duty! I would think a doctor was a rolemodel in the community in those days (1904). And to think that he defended a woman and her rights by commiting murder! Let alone the parts about sex and abortion...

I must admit the ending was a wee bit dissapointing to me. It felt like it just all died out....and the doctor just longed for winter... maybe Im missing a point here?
