Those closest to us, especially in our early years, are the immediate members of our family. We look to them for love, guidance, care and attention.

But as the years pass things change. Siblings may become closer, they may become rivals. But things will change. Our classic authors including D H Lawrence, Kate Chopin, Mary Butts, Nikolai Gogol and a host of others bring narrative verve and fabled characters to explore and exploit this genre that is so familiar to many of us.
