Summary
With the death of her mother, and her father's growing addiction to laundaum, Gemma was sent to a finishing school in London. At first Gemma is the outcast of the school but then befriends the most popular in school because she finds her in a bad situation that would ruin her life. Gemma and Felicity soon form a strong friendship, and also befriend Gemma's roomate Ann and Felicity's best friend Pippa. Gemma is still tormented by the visions she has. She keeps thinking back to what Katrik told her at the market place. She must close her mind to these visions she's having or else something bad will happen

Previously what I had contributed to Zoes post on the fathers laundanum addiction
ReplyDelete"I can agree with the fact that the mother not being there can result in this addiction becoming stronger. After the death of a loved one people tend to result in doing harmful things to "relieve" them from the stress and depression occurring. Morphine is also a very harmful drug. The consequences of being addicted to laudanum are very bad and may even lead to death"
states my feeelings to the addiction. It is interesting how Gemma and Felicity were not close at first and it is interesting how the situation changes going to becoming close friends.
