Saratoga

di Brian MacDonald (Autore)

Brian Macdonald, 2020

If you look outside the box of ordinary fiction, you will find the story of Saratoga, an adventurous and inquisitive girl growing into a woman in the fictional town of Lafayette, NH. This unique contemporary tale is tinged with romance and has a sprinkling of humor throughout. Sara's full name is Saratoga Concord Parmenter. Her parents named her after two of the most important battles in the American Revolution, and have instilled in her the importance of the founding principles of America. Her friends call her Sara most of the time, but she is also known as Miss Einstein. One of her favorite expressions is "Well, if you think about it." Sara likes to think and inquire about many things. One thing that bothers her a lot is the fact that women in general do not get historical credit for things they have done in far too many fields. And although she loves her country, she is annoyed that the Declaration of Independence states that "All men are created equal." As Sara reminds her father in Chapter Four "And as I've said many times before, it should be 'all people are created equal', not just men." This story is very entertaining, but it also delves into some of the serious issues facing us today. These are interwoven into various parts of the story in an interesting yet relatively brief way. To keep things on the light side, there is an occasional romantic twist, and the story is also sprinkled with a lively sense of humor, especially between Sara and her father.
