Perhaps we do not have only one "self", but an infinite number of "selves", each living in a million different parallel spaces. ”Sophie's father thinks Sophie has three sides: one is dreaming and romantic; On the one hand, he is good at reasoning and down-to-earth; There is also an impulsive side that is very stubborn.
Sophie is a 13-year-old girl. Her yearning for the sea shows her stubborn side. She always wanted to sail alone, but at the same time she had a nightmare of being drowned in the sea from time to time because she was afraid of water. Eventually, she persuaded her parents to bravely board the Rover and set sail with her three uncles and two cousins.
They planned to travel from the East Coast of the United States across the Atlantic to Ireland to visit their grandfather, Bonpi.
Sophie, her uncle and cousin were going to sail at sea for three to four weeks, and it was expected that the six of them might disagree and quarrel, but as a result, everyone went their own way, and the solidarity of each other's hearts gradually became closer and closer.
* Slowly unfold in Sophie and Cody's diary, reading Sophie and Cody's diary is like following Sophie on a voyage.
During the voyage, we were surprised to find that Uncle Moses seemed to have no interest in anything, but in fact he was very good at drawing, and at sea he was finally free to paint, but in reality he was engaged in the boring work of statistics.
Uncle Moses' conversation with Sophie also makes us think: Don't you want to be what you want to be? Will you turn your hobby into a career? Or do you give up your interests for better employment?
Cody, a cousin who is very reckless and loves to do things, is actually not as "full of vices" as adults think. He is sturdy and strong, laughs and is full of energy, is very gentle with small animals, juggles, and has an interest in radio.
Our protagonist Sophie also relieved the grief of losing her parents during this voyage, learned to face reality bravely, and regained her self-confidence and spiritual growth.
The description of the scenery in this book is very beautiful, and the scene is also about love.
Write about the furious sea:"The sea! "The sea! "The sea! The sea kept roaring, the waves rolling, and it was difficult for me to calm my heart, and it was difficult for all of us to calm down. ”
Write about the calm sea:"Look at the dolphins, they're so carefree. No one will accuse them of doing anything wrong. They just need to take a dip in the water and flip in the air. ”
The vagaries of the sea are like the ups and downs of life. Stories of the past come to light with the challenge of surviving at seaWhen the Rover arrives at its destination, every passenger on board finds their place in this world.
