At the start of the book, the author recounts the circumstances surrounding her arrival into the world, which was marked by unexpected chaos and excitement. From the account of her birth, where her family anticipated a boy and were surprised to welcome a girl, to her childhood memories filled with vivid characters, including family members and household servants, the narrative sets a warm, reflective tone.
