The Honourable Jim
by Emma Orczy
Orchi talks about these three - a woman and two men - playmates, enemies, lovers in turn. It seemed impossible to try to break an emotional thread from the complex distortion of passion and hatred that seventeenth-century England had pulled us out of the vortex of civil war and violent strife. Between the modernisms and aggressive realism of modern life and the actions of James Fiennes, intangible, incomprehensible, simple fantasy creations appear. But in Broughton Castle, where he lives, everything is different. There, between the gorgeous gray walls in the majestic halls and through the labyrinthine passages, the intriguing personality of the honorable Jim immediately loses its dreamlike quality. In his old house, James Fiennes immediately becomes Jim - the real Jim - alive! O! A lot of live.
