These books revolve around a woman who falls in love with a homeless person. Their love is intense and passionate. I feel that we have a lot to learn from this book. I learned how to recognize a person who betrays a woman. These books have contributed a lot. Their love is an example for everyone because after getting married, this man totally changed. He betrayed this woman. The woman's name is Lily Blom. Lily Blom struggles a lot and suffers from depression. Moreover, I think that she is a delicate person.
