The Fourth Child by Jessica Winter5/9/2023 ![]() And what Jane endures in her marriage does seem realistic to me (Yes, I’m jaded…I see the bad characters as true and not the purely good characters). She marries the father, of course, as that’s what all good girls do. Jane gets herself in a family way when she’s a Senior in high school. In the interest of honesty, I will confess that I’m a bit jaded when it comes to the overly devote. Realistically, I have never met such a person as Jane, not even in nuns. Jane’s kindness and patience is almost unreal though. What sets Jane apart from many catholic enthusiasts is that she does practice forgiveness, compassion, and love. From the start, the reader is concerned for Jane who is taking her faith to a frightening level, fantasizing on how she too could be a saint, with all their suffering and humiliation. It begins with Jane, who is a zealous catholic young girl, dreamy in her thoughts of all the female saints and Jesus. ![]() “The Fourth Child” is an amazing literary domestic fiction story that is told from two viewpoints. ![]()
