Like Scarlett O'Hara, Zuleika Dobson's appeal not so much in her great beauty. Though the two women are beautiful enough, there are others in their own story who can compete on the level of aesthetics; how do you compete with an enchantress, however? Zuleika is an enchantress although she prefers to call herself a prestidigitator. Which is certainly more attractive than a governess, her former occupation.She travels to Oxford to visit her grandfather who happens to be the Warden of Judas College. Thanks to the intervention and influence of the Warden, Zuleika enters into the maelstrom of daily life that is Oxford University. It is at Oxford that something truly spectacular happens to Zuleika: for the very first time in her life she falls in love.The lucky guy--in theory--is an aristocratic snob who prefers to be known as the Duke of Dorset. As such, he is used to be alienated from natural human emotions that are expressed without angst by normal people. Overcome by a flood of emotional lack of control he can only barely comprehend, the Duke pretty much becomes a wobbly piece of jelly every time he sees Zuleika. She is his first love as well and, as these things usually go, he pops the question on unthinking impulse. Zuleika's response is quite literally jaw-dropping: no, because she cannot possibly loved anyone who is not organically repulsed by her enchanting charms.Weird, huh?
