Ducdame was John Cowper Powys' fourth novel published in 1925. It
is set in Dorset. The protagonist, Rook Ashover (a wonderfully
Powysian name) is an introverted young squire with a dilemma: to go
on loving his mistress, Netta Page, or, make a respectable marriage
and produce an heir. Of his early novels (pre- Wolf Solent) this
one is often considered to be the most carefully constructed and
best organized. Like them all it contains a gallery of rich,
complex characters and glorious writing.
