Hello, Jackie,

Thank you so much for such an excellent explanation.

I never connected the theme to the protagonist's inner arc.

And it confirmed what I thought my theme was.

However, I read (or misread?) somewhere that one should always use the theme while writing the novel.

How can it be if my theme is Justice forbids consideration of wealth and rejects prejudices? Especially when there are several threads and subplots?

Moreover, wouldn't the premise better answer what the novel is about?

In advance, thank you.

All the best,

Claude
