Polly writes that last year's gift for Icarus went over very well.
What does she mean by this?
If a present "went over well" then it was well-received, or was a success. Polly is expressing that last year's gift to Icarus was appreciated. Other examples of the expression "to go over well": I don't think your joke about bankers will "go over well" at the banking conference, OR our presentation went over very well, I think the company will decide to buy the product. Note that in British English, the expression "to go down well" is used. For example: The present for the queen went down very well.
