Nobody's fault explores the inner tension of a young woman caught between aspiration and origin, as she seeks to redefine herself beyond the circumstances of her upbringing. The novel opens with a contrast between a modest interior and the oppressive atmosphere of the city outside, echoing the emotional duality of the protagonist. Her early interactions reveal a growing recognition of how her past shapes her present, as well as the distance she feels from those around her who fail to understand the depth of her ambitions. Through conversations and introspection, the protagonist confronts the discomfort of class barriers and the pressure of societal expectations, especially as her creative pursuits begin to stir attention. The story is not driven by dramatic incidents but by the slow and layered emergence of a consciousness aware of its limitations and potential. There is a quiet critique of the social structures that define a woman's place and the narrowness of sympathy offered by those who speak of opportunity without understanding constraint. The novel balances subtle emotional detail with an acute awareness of how identity is shaped not only by choice but also by inheritance.
