I loved it. I loved the slow, sweet, poignancy of Hilary falling in love, of finally experiencing what he never dreamed would happen for him. I loved Tom's openness and loving determination in wooing Hilary. I loved the very Englishness of the setting.
If I had to confess a niggle it would be that Hilary's "voice" seems more appropriate to the generation just before the one he is written in. But that is just my humble opinion whilst reminiscing about 1967. (And this, after all, is just a dream...)
