CAN THE SECRETS OF THE PAST SAVE THE FUTURE?
The novel A Pattern of Secrets by Lindsay Littleson takes us back to a crucial moment in history, where industrial mechanization changed the Paisley weaving industry forever. The intertwined stories of Jessie and Jim, two contrasting characters, are deeply impacted by these changes. While Jim struggles to provide for his family, Jessie battles societal expectations. The connection between them through a Paisley shawl is both symbolic and powerful. Personally, this story resonated with me due to my grandmother's passion for sewing, which I wished I could have explored further. The question posed on the back cover about the secrets of the past saving the future struck a chord with me, prompting me to set aside my current read and dive into this captivating narrative. Whether or not this question resonates with you, I urge you to discover the fate of Jessie and Jim as their stories unfold towards a satisfying conclusion.
