    STEP BY WICKED STEP NOVEL

    What is a novel?

    Only in a novel are all thins iven !ull play " D# $# %awrence 

     A novel is a long narrative in literary prose. Novels tell stories, which are typically

    defined as a series of events described in a sequence. The novel has been a part of human

    culture for over a thousand years, although its origins are somewhat debated. Regardless of 

    how it began, the novel has risen to prominence and remained one of the most popular andtreasured examples of human culture and writing.

    There have been stories and tales for thousands of years, but novels must combine a

    few unique characteristics in order to be defined as such. First, a novel is written down,

    rather than told through an oral account. econdly, novels are meant to be fictional in form,

    differentiating them from myths, which are said to have their basis in reality or theology.

     Although some modern scholars argue differently, there is no truly established guideline for 

    length, point!of!view, or even establishment of a moral or philosophical point in novels.

    =hen it was first published, tep by =ic$ed tep too$ some reviewers3 breath away. ?ut

    it was hard to argue an author shouldn3t write about a state of affairs that affects so many

    of our children. And, at heart, + thin$ the adults who read the boo$ simply shared the

    same shoc$ + felt when, after wal$ing my children to school under a giant billboard that

    declared, Bince Cou assed This oster Cesterday, Another 5)) 0hildren =ere Affected

    by %ivorceB, + began researching the subDect of what is often called 3reconstituted3

    families.

    + $new from the lives around me that parental separation was only the beginning of the

    complications for children. >ften the really tough time comes when one parent or the

    other sets up home with someone new, and the children aren3t ready.

    =e have six stories in the boo$. >nly five could be fitted into the radio adaptation ! andeven that was a squeeEe. ?oth boo$ and radio adaptation has the structure of boxes

    within boxes. The children3s school visit to 2arwic$ 2all provides both the outer frame

    and the explanation for why all five children should Dust 3happen3 to be from bro$en

    families. Richard 0layton 2arwic$3s long!hidden Dournal provides an inner tale that

    triggers off, one by one, each of the stories of the listening children.

    + quite deliberately made the toughest emotional tale that of the ictorian child, Richard

    2arwic$. et in the past, with all the protagonists now lying safely in their graves, anychild disturbed by the sheer antagonism between the prototypically overbearing and

    unfeeling stepfather and the young grieving Richard can comfort themselves that this sort

    of thing is part of 3history3.

    Those of us who $now better ! including a host of young readers whose depth of feeling

    and unhappy circumstances may mirror Richard3s more than we care to thin$ ! can ta$e

    the story more at its emotional face value.

    +3ve been a shade more protective in the other stories, sometimes by showing things well

    on the way to a happy ending 0laudia and ixie3s stories/, or by showing how the sheer

    determination of a child can give strength and purpose 0olin3s story/. Ralph3s story is a

    robust one from start to finish.

    +3ve tried to be honest about the lac$ of choices most children are offered, and the lac$

    of real opportunity to spea$ fran$ly and openly about their feelings and situations to the

    adults around them. To this end, +3ve shifted through scores of perfectly normal 3case

    studies3 of families after divorce, and pic$ed what + wor$ed out was a fair cross!section

    of scenarios and emotional states.

    +f adults reading the boo$ or listening to the adaptation are startled by this, + thin$ the

    only thing that + can say is, 3;oo$ around you, and listen3 because none of these stories

    is particularly unusual. 0olin3s seems saddest, of courseG but, from the numbers of

    runaways on our streets, + thin$ we can assume that even Richard 2arwic$3s story is

    commoner, even now, than we3d care to imagine./

    The boo$3s been a great success in schools. There is, of course, the 3autobiography3

    element which can be mined to advantage. 8ach child has a very distinct story!telling

    outloo$ and style./ The mix of sexes in the stories wor$s well with classes of all sorts.

    The sheer 3domestic3 element of the tales B>ur family3s not li$e that.B B9y family is.B/

    $eeps up the interest.

    ?ut, from the letters + get, what really seems to touch a nerve about tep by =ic$ed

    tep is the depth of the children3s feelings. All too many tales for young children

    assume far too narrow an emotional range. 9any children do enDoy 3fun3, yes. ?ut all of

    them, li$e adults, lead complicated and demanding emotional lives, often lived in

    strained and stretched families.

    +n giving five of them so intimate and honest a voice, tep by =ic$ed tep empowers

    all who share the story. +t was, emotionally, one of the hardest boo$s +3ve ever chosen

    to write. ?ut + only have to read the letters of children responding to it, to be glad + $ept

    at it.

    here but it is of no consequence as the novel-s main purpose is to serve as a forum for six

    +n Step by Wic7e" Step, five boys and girls find themselves in an old house on a

     After Richard 0layton 2arwic$-s father passes away, he was sent to 9ordanger

    chool for four long years. 2e wishes to burn 9ordanger to Hashes- as to him, Hthere-s no

    meaner place on earth- than this boarding school. =hen he returns to >ld 2arwic$ 2all, he

    could not get along with his wic$ed and loveless stepfather, Reverend 0oldstone. ?eing

    Hrobbed of all his precious to$ens- from home, Richard ma$es the decision to leave and

    become a cabin boy when Ha great ship strains at the tide-. 2is decision has caused anguish

    in his mother and sister, who have spent a fortune see$ing his return. 2e did not return to

    see his mother or sister until he read a square print from Riddle K Floo$ which requested

    him to claim his ownership to >ld 2arwic$ 2all. ?y then, Richard $nows that his stepfather,

    mother and sister have passed on. >nly then, he realises his decision to leave has changed

    the lives of his family members.

    2arwic$3s story prompts 0laudia, 0olin, Ralph, ixie and Robbo to tell their own tales

    of stepfathers, stepmothers, and stepsiblings, who are in turn eccentric, beloved,

    unwelcome, and almost always misunderstood. 8ach vignetteL is a wonderful study of

    human nature. As the lightning flashes, the children begin to relate their own tales of step

    parents, stories that are full of warmth and humour, yet with a fair share of sadness.

     At first it seems the children could have nothing in common. ports!mad Robbo,

    quic$!witted Ralph, sensible 0laudia, fiery ixie and dreamy 0olin seem as different to each

    other as it is possible to be. Cet they soon find they have one thing in common, and that they

    are all the products of bro$en homes and they once have a turbulent relationship with a

    Personification

    ersonification is a a figure of speech in which inanimate obDects or abstractions areendowed with human qualities or are represented as possessing human form. Anne Fineuses personification to ma$e this novel more dramatic and interesting or to convey a certainmood. ?y using this literary device, it also helps us to relate more to the obDect or idea that isbeing personified because it is easier for us to relate to something with human attributes.
