Lady Audley’s Secret Chapter 37

By Superuser

Robert still feels like he’s somehow responsible for what happens to Lady A, even though part of me keeps thinking… she did set that fire and tried to murder someone. But I guess he won’t look at it like that because it’d be “ungentlemanly” or whatever. Also, I keep getting hung up on all the train timetable/travel details. They finally get to Villebrumeuse, and Lady A is still feeling awful. I don’t know—do people actually feel sorry for her, or am I missing something? And the whole sanitarium thing is weird. It doesn’t look too bad, kind of like a hotel, and I wouldn’t want my freedom taken either. Madame Taylor is definitely not buying that, though. What did you think of her reaction? I also can’t get past George being in the well. It made me wonder if Robert could’ve gone that route earlier when he and Lady A were arguing. And were you more shocked by how he was killed, or by the confession? Any other thoughts people had about this chapter?
