Pretty good story. Aside from the main plot lines, I was impressed how it portrayed the whole spectrum of bigotry. Even the vicar seemed to think that she should be grateful that he was interested in her romantically, since she wasn't "light, white, tight, and bright." It's something I noticed back in my youth, when many young men (and their families) thought that a non-Anglo-Saxon girlfriend was pretty much like a mistress. It was cool for sex and romance, but one just didn't marry those sort of girls. Some of the prejudice and bigotry was overt and some was extremely subtle and unconscious, but there sure was a lot of it.
