Carlisle

Chapter 6 - DAY FOUR · AFTERNOON Little Compton, Cornwall

Carlisle — aliases: the doctor

Appears in Stevens' memory from the previous morning, driving his Rover and gifting Stevens petrol. He discusses the nature of dignity with Stevens, dismisses Harry Smith's political views as confusing, and reflects on his past socialist beliefs.
