Janet could not lift it up.
It was far heavier than she would have ever guessed.
When she held the baby up before, she had simply been deposited on her lap.
She'd never carried her.
So she grabbed such projections as she could find, a shoulder and a fiercely resisting arm, and dragged the whole mass, shawls trailing, through mud and snagging on leaves, over the grass and across the gravel, and at last to the kitchen door, where Vera and Nanny greeted her, first with horror and then with fury.
Do you see what I mean?
She's not understood what they've asked her to do, which is bring the baby in.
And she's said, OK, I'll take the baby in and therefore does these things which are objectionable and horrid.
Yes, I think it's great.
It really, it's really wonderful.
You know, it really makes you just, because this book has lots of descriptions of, well, how much she loves spending time, you know, alone in the big castle and where they live.
Is this equally as disturbing?
Yes.
It's so, so, so grim.

What could have made her write like this?
Naughty.

Well... You'll find E.M.
