A Fiction book. Sin spreads misery around it only when there is ground ready for the bad seed. Hesba Stretton, Cobwebs and Cables...
Hesba Stretton (1832-1911) was the nom de plume of Sarah Smith, an English author of children's literature. The name Hesba came from the initials of her siblings. She was the daughter of a bookseller from Wellington, Shropshire, but around 1867 she moved south and lived at Snaresbrook and Loughton near Epping Forest and at Ham, near Richmond, Surrey. Her moral tales and semi-religious stories, chiefly for the young, were printed in huge quantities, and were especially widespread as school and Sunday school prizes. She won wide acceptance in English homes from the publication of Jessica's First Prayer in 1867. She was a regular contributor to Household Words and All the Year Round during Charles Dickens' editorship, and wrote upwards of 40 novels.

More About Cobwebs and Cables
God chooses our kinsfolk for us; but man chooses his own wife; having free will in that choice on which hangs his own life, and the lives of others. Yet the wisest of men said, 'Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favor of the Lord.' Ay, a good wife is the token of such loving favor as we know not yet in this world.

Felicita was a such frustrating character! It was hard to abide with her. Otherwise this story has a very good lesson and a bittersweet end to it. This is a really interesting story of the consequences of deceit and lies. It follows the story of a husband/father/benefactor who falls into sin (the misappropriation of money) and the decisions -- sometimes strange ones -- that he and others who know him then make. The book, written in 1881, will keep your interest, and the book exalts... Very good book. It dramatically shows consequences for our actions and why it's so important to choose a good spouse. It is a very sad book and not a light read in any way, but readers will be left mulling over the ideas in the book for a long time after completing it.
