The human response to evil is naturally to return evil. This novel shows that unless a spirit of goodness is instilled from very young it is often difficult if not impossible to cultivate one of kindness and generosity. Stealing, lying, cruel tactics are employed to crush those who are weak and helpless. The rich oppress. the poor are repressed. When a dying man is misled to change his will in favor of a son in law the estate ends up in the hands of his daughter's family who are careless and indifferent caretakers. Recompense for evil comes eventually although there is suffering and death. (Amazon)
