The first attack of illness, the first bout of her interminable depression,
from her childhood, netochka has been the victim of abuse and then it just switched to a more subtle form now being passed around aristocratic families. she is always an outsider. now look at this alexandra m; she too is quite out of her mind, or at least on the path of insanity, and serves as a mirror to her father. look at how talent comes back to this book; it was not mentioned once in Prince X’s house.
