Excerpt from Levity Hicks
Sockitt's boaae establishment lies on the north side of Gridley Square; and Gridley Square hangs, as it were, on the outskirts of Bloomsbury. Which is to say that it is not in Bloomsbury proper, although it aspires to be, and artfully hints at the fact in advertisements, and in other places. In the fanlight over every door in Gridley Square you will see a card announcing Apartments and such population as drifts from time to time into Gridley Square is but a floating one - here to-day and gone on some coming to-morrow.

The author paints a vivid picture of daily life and human observation in the early 20th century through these characters, but also explores the themes of dreaming, regret, and possibility, as each character grapples with the paths their lives have taken.
