Events are either unfortunate or fortunate. The themes of the book are quite attractive and intriguing. To add on this, the historical stories are always insightful and entertaining.

I am interested in the books that brings out a positive outlook on life and I feel this novel is similar. Also, the emotional side of the novel that includes the story of two sisters whose father and brother were swept away at sea, and their mother had to hand them over into the bondage of contracted servitude, should be sensitive and interesting. Thank you for the review!
The disappearance of the word "I am" is indeed the highest happiness! :)
