Chi conosce Edgar Wallace per i suoi thriller resterà stupito di questo suo romanzo leggero. Scritto nel 1909, è una ironica e delicata satira dell'atteggiamento inglese verso la nobiltà.

Nella narrativa quioroghiana tutto riconduce al confronto tra uomo e natura in un parallelo che richiama la dualità Uomo-Destino della cultura classica. Le descrizioni naturalistiche, minuziose e precise, evidenziano una forte conflittualità nella relazione e la natura ostile, cieca, ma giusta è quasi sempre vincitrice sull'uomo. La morte del contadino o del pescatore a causa di un qualche animale selvaggio, che sia un serpente velenoso, un coccodrillo o un parassita del sangue, sono sempre parte di un gioco letale in cui l'uomo cerca di sopraffare la natura.

I cannot see it. I may not touch it. I do not know it”

L'amour et l'indépendance de la jeune fille, les préséances sociales et les revanches sur le passé, l'attirance pour les idéaux généreux, les messages de la passion triomphant du temps et de l'espace, les flammes de la folie, tels sont quelques-uns des thèmes qui se détachent sur un fond d'observation à la Dickens et qui sont emportés par un grand souffle romanesque.
