This is an interesting read into the life of factory workers. The exploitation of labour and enslavement of workingmen by the capitalists depicted here stands true even today.
The story revolves around a woman, her miserable life as a wife, her unconditional love for her son, and her transformation from a fearing wife and a doting mother to a mother who cares not just for her son, but for all socialists who fight against the power hungry capitalists.
The happenings are real and the characters evolve with the proceedings and make a strong impact. The character arc of the Mother is unbelievably real and takes its time to evolve. The transformation is setup in stages and is not immediate which makes this novel nothing short of reality.
A novel that highlights the need of social reform in our society!
