Haleth December 19, 2020 Share December 19, 2020 On 12/17/2020 at 2:31 PM, blueray said: Remus Lupin: His father pisses off a werewolf, to only have that werewolf attack him as revenge turning him as a kid. So he lost most of his childhood as there is no cure. He then starting school (the best time of his life) and makes friends. Only to watch as two of them die at 21, one become evil and the other one be wrongly accused of murder. Then after Sirius is found not guilty, him and Lupin start to become close again only for Sirius to be murdered. Then a few years later, Lupin himself and his wife are murdered, leaving their few month old son an orphan. Poor Lupin, who is an awesome character and deserved a lot better. It was totally unnecessary for JKR to knock them off. It served no purpose other than to create melodrama. 14 Link to comment
Spartan Girl December 19, 2020 Author Share December 19, 2020 You know, a lot of other HP characters could fill this thread: Dumbledore’s family, whose lives were destroyed by Ariana’s assault. Ariana mentally damaged and traumatized, the dad sent to Azkaban for avenging her, the mom accidentally gets killed by Ariana, Ariana accidentally getting killed by her brothers or Grindelwald, Albus and Aberforth left guilt ridden and estranged. The Longbottoms were driven to insanity, a fate arguably worse than death. Harry himself went through hell and back throughout his whole life, even though he survived and went on to have a happier life. 10 Link to comment

And that’s what is alluded to in Haynes’ book, and from the way she tells it, it’s a sort-of-happy ending, definitely a step up from being Neoptolemus’ slave, but at the same time, she still deeply scarred for her ordeals and still mourns Hector and Astanyax. Pretty much all of the characters in Tiger Hills by Sarita Mandanna get a raw deal, some of it by circumstance and some by their own making.

In Victorian England, children were considered the property of the father and the mother had no rights to them. They never officially divorced just legally separated. Charles then used his wife's sister to manage his household and children. Later his eldest daughter took over some of the duties. All the while, Charles was with his younger mistress. His mistress, Ellen Ternan was younger than Charles's eldest 2 children. 3 Link to comment
Spartan Girl September 3, 2021 Author Share September 3, 2021 I can’t believe I haven’t thought of this before, but poor Anna in My Sister’s Keeper. Born to be a donor child, her parents (well, her mom more than her dad) expecting her to sacrifice her own health for her terminally ill sister who might not have survived the transplant, and then being treated like a pariah for suing for the rights to own body when she was in a position her parents never should have put her in to begin with. The fact that Kate asked her to do it because she was worn out by constant treatments and transplants is irrelevant. And that AWFUL ending Spoiler Where she gets killed in a car crash. I’d like to think her mother spent the rest of her miserable life feeling like her wish to save Kate had been granted on a monkey’s paw, but I’m not holding my breath. 14 Link to comment

Yes, it all worked out for Hannah in the end, but she still went through a lot. She deserved way more sympathy than Isabel, who thought having a couple miscarriages entitled her to a child and nearly got Tom sent to death row for not telling the truth. And even though I thought Tom was a moron for forgiving Isabel after everything she put him through, I think he got a raw deal too. He should not have been guilted into keeping the baby for so long, and for her to punish him after he finally did the right thing was just despicable.

Bali November 24, 2021 Share November 24, 2021 I have a lot of sympathy for Mr. Rochester. Her family hid the illness from him. She tried to kill him on multiple occasions. She kept trying to set him and his belongings on fire. We aren't talking about a slight case of depression. We are talking about a truly psychotic homical pyromaniac. It was illegal for him to divorce her. He should earn points for not shoving her into an asylum, as most in that time period would have. You need to look at the whole time period THEN when judging him. He tried to avoid Jane, but here's someone who you can talk to vs. someone who tries to kill you, flies at your head, and is abusive in every way. If Berta was a man and Rochester the woman, would you still feel that he got a raw deal? 1 3 Link to comment

But then he tried and almost succeeded in tricking Jane as well. He knew she was too proper to have anything to do with a married man, so he neglected to mention the crazy wife in the attic.

Blergh December 2, 2021 Share December 2, 2021 Yeah, let's not forget Adele got abandoned by her mother at an early age, then taken to a foreign country where she didn't know anyone else besides her mother's onetime flame Rochester AND gets looked down upon by her new governess for actually continuing to speak with a French accent and entertaining herself with singing and dancing. Even at the end of the book, the 2nd Mrs. Rochester seems smug that Adele's losing her supposedly bad 'French' habits. I imagine that she likely had clung to the singing and dancing from feeling so overwhelmed by the situation (and not have to think about all those strange crying and laughing sounds in the night). 5 Link to comment

Jane loves Adèle and does not want to be separated from her when Rochester is planning to marry Blanche Ingram. Does anyone have the citation of Jane looking down on Adèle for singing and dancing? The closest I can come is when she meets Adèle and Adèle performs a song that Jane thinks is inappropriate for a little girl, but she definitely doesn't scold Adele for it. I did find a part where she thinks about Adèle's "superficiality of character" which she attributes to her foreignness, but the stress is on how despite this feeling she allows Adèle to be herself and loves her for the good in her. Quote The subject seemed strangely chosen for an infant singer; but I suppose the point of the exhibition lay in hearing the notes of love and jealousy warbled with the lisp of childhood; and in very bad taste that point was: at least I thought so. Quote When we went in, and I had removed her bonnet and coat, I took her on my knee; kept her there an hour, allowing her to prattle as she liked: not rebuking even some little freedoms and trivialities into which she was apt to stray when much noticed, and which betrayed in her a superficiality of character, inherited probably from her mother, hardly congenial to an English mind. Still she had her merits; and I was disposed to appreciate all that was good in her to the utmost. 2 Link to comment

Spartan Girl December 16, 2021 Author Share December 16, 2021 (edited) Valerie in Hate List by Jennifer Brown. Everyone blames her for her boyfriend shooting up the school all because of a dumb list they did together of all the people they hated. Even though the cops clear her of being involved, people still blame her—even her own parents. Her asshole dad wants to just shop her back to a psych ward, not to get her help but because he just wants her out of his life. The only people who are even remotely understanding to Valerie are her therapist (who is way more of a father to her than that sperm doner) and her former bully. And her father’s girlfriend, although why she still stays with him after witnessing the way he treats his own daughter, I’ll never understand.

Spartan Girl January 23, 2022 Author Share January 23, 2022 (edited) I know I already listed Mariam in A Thousand Splendid Suns, but I just realized that almost all of the characters in Khalid Hosseini’s novels could qualify for this thread! The Kite Runner: Hassan and his wife are murdered by the Taliban, Rahim Khan dies alone of cancer, poor little Sohrab is so traumatized by being molested that even the suggestion of a temporary stay at the orphanage while Amir goes through the process of adopting him is enough for him to attempt suicide—and even after that it’s unclear if he’ll ever be really happy with Amir and Soraya (though the ending lets us have some hope). Edited to add: Oh man, how did I ever forget about poor Ali? Orphaned as a child, endures a lifetime of ridicule for his polio-damaged leg, deserted not by one but TWO wives, one of whom cheats on him with the man he considers a brother, and to top it all off, he is killed by accidentally stepping on a landmine. Hassan was the one good thing in his whole life, and for both their sakes, I really hope Ali never found out that he wasn't his biological father. A Thousand Splendid Suns: Aside from Mariam, I think Laila’s dad/Hakim got a raw deal, being constantly blamed by his wife for their sons dying in war and her making him so miserable that I wish he would have just taken Laila and left the country sooner—that way he wouldn’t have been killed by the rocket falling on their house. And as much as I dislike how Nana treated Mariam, I will have to concede that she too had a rough life, being branded unweddable first by her epilepsy then by Jalil impregnating her, which led her father to disown her. Of course she could have made things easier for herself by not taking it out on Mariam, but I digress… And the Mountains Echoed: Literally tons of tragic characters, but the fact that Abdullah and Pari don’t reunite until he’s so deep in Alzheimer’s that he can’t remember her at all is just unfair.

Actually, I always thought that she would live out her life. Upon death, she'd be reunited with the others in the true Narnia. Essentially, she takes the slow path but gets there in the end.

Bali November 4, 2022 Share November 4, 2022 I'm still pro-Jane and anti Bertha. Think of it this way Bertha is Amber Heard, but instead of pooping on the bed, she's setting it on fire- with him still in it. That would get old really fast. He wasn't allowed to divorce her. And being kept in the attic was better than being in Bedlam which is where she belonged. She is an arsonist and a psychotic killer. We have no issue with putting arsonists behind bars, but condemn him for having to remain married to her-even after she stabbed him. I guess my line in the sand is "Once you try to murder me, I no longer have sympathy for you." 2 Link to comment
