Searching through the book

Using the "Search Inside this Book" feature on Amazon, I chose to ficus on how the word 'water' was used throughout the book.
At first, you see water being used for cleaning mainly and its from the river, carried in  bucket by Tambu every day, and its cold and its later in running pipes and it can be hot too and its kind of like a status symbol-- the hotter the water and if its from a bucket/pipe the richer you are kind of thing-- and at the homestead water is like this necessity and they don't always have enough of it and then at the mission they have an abundance of it and can afford to use it in way more ways than they can at the homestead.
Then it turns into a description Nyasha uses about herself in relation to how Babamukuru treats hr, always expecting her to do whatever whenever with whoever which is like water-- you just pour it where you want it and it does'nt talk back or anything, it just does it.
So it seems like, even though water is this kind of luxury thing it is very easy to deal with and not how a person should be but Babamukuru thinks otherwise but he didn't rise her like that even though he wants her to be different.
So... um yep!
