Caroline Dale Snedeker tells her novel "The Forgotten Daughter" in prose which is intelligent and gently poetic. This is emblematic of any sympathetic, learned Roman, such as Aulus; and common for a mildly-educated dreamer like Chloe. Indeed, Aulus and Chloe connect culturally, between songs, plays, and philosophy. They also appear to connect on a level of conservatism -Chloe longing for her Grecian roots, while Aulus years for an honest, simpler, and agrarian-based Rome.
