Sara Crewe or What Happened at Miss Minchin's

More about the book

Set in a monotonous London square, the story introduces Miss Minchin, who resides in a large, unremarkable house. The environment is characterized by uniformity, with identical houses and sparrows, creating a dull atmosphere. The heavy sound of door-knockers echoes throughout the row, emphasizing the sameness of the surroundings. The brass plate on Miss Minchin's door hints at her significance within this dreary setting, setting the stage for the unfolding narrative.
