Description
Sandra Cassandra is a coming-of-age novel about power and its effects on individuals. Seventeen-year-old Sandra's life takes an unexpected turn when she proposes to her father's boss, Fergus Hardisty, in response to his proposal of marriage. As the wedding approaches, Sandra begins to question her decision and the motivations behind it. As Sandra navigates her new reality, she struggles with feelings of guilt and self-doubt, often blaming herself for the problems that arise. However, with the help of unexpected kindness from strangers, she starts to find a way out of darkness and towards a brighter future. This novel explores the transformative power of ordinary people doing ordinary things, highlighting the importance of compassion, healing, and the human will in supporting those who need it most. Through Sandra's journey, the book delves into themes of dominance, vanity, good vs. bad, and kindness over cruelty, ultimately showing that even small actions can lead to profound changes in one's life.
