About “Two on a tower”

Lady Constantine breaks the rules of social decorum by falling in love with Swithin St Cleeve, a beautiful youth who is her social inferior and ten years her junior. The tower in the story is a monument converted into an astronomical observatory where the lovers 'sweep the heavens' together, as science and romance collide under the pressures of work, ambition, and the outside world.
