Chapter 1-4

Literal Sense
Oliver was born into a life of turmoil. His mother died when he was born and never got to met his father because his mother and father never got married. Oliver was moved from one workhouse to another. He never had a stable home, with no model adults he could look up to no one. One could only feel for a boy such has Oliver, a boy in this world alone, not knowing if you were going to die tomorrow will damage a young boys life forever. I know a lot of people today whose parents are not married but Oliver was living in the day in age where if you're parents wasn't married you were in trouble. You had to raise from that situation and be the best that you could be. Oliver was thrown into a situation he was not prepared for.
Emotional Triggers
How could one person go through so many things before they're even born? Not having a mother or father but waiting yoku do have people who wouldn't cared if you lived or died. Being an outcast in your own home can do so much to a young boy. Since his mother was unwed and is dead does that mean Oliver will never find his real Father?

I dont quite understand what you mean by he was born into a turmoil. How do you know that in those day and age you would be in trouble if your parents isnt married? You can always look for the bright side of a situation no matter what. It eventually gets better. Good question, would he ever find his father?
