Exactly. And then there's Sandy. Sandy's vision is narrow, obscured, fanatical in its own way. The references to her small eyes, her piggy eyes, abound--Spark rarely describes her without mentioning this characteristic--and she ends up with her vision further obscured not just by the church but by the bars she clutches when she is visited at the convent. And to construct a novel entirely of flashbacks--it's --haha--all hindsight.

Love that book and will teach it as my novel when I next teach first-year lit, whenever that may be.
