The Deep End of the Ocean is purely fictional. The plot and characters were developed by the writer for entertainment purposes and not based on real-life events.
I don't know what the title of Ye Feiye's Ocean and Shen Shen is. I am a person who loves reading novels. I can only answer your questions. If you can provide more context information, I will try my best to answer your questions.
The mother is an important character. Her love for her son and her determination to find him drive much of the story. The son who goes missing is also key, even though he's not always present physically. His absence shapes the actions and emotions of the other characters.
Well, I think the themes are about resilience and self - discovery. The family has to be resilient in the face of such a huge trauma. And as they go through this difficult time, they also discover things about themselves that they didn't know before. There's also a theme related to the passage of time. How time affects the family's search for the missing child and how they change over time is part of what the novel is about.
Well, it's mainly centered around a child who goes missing. This sets off a chain of events that explores the relationships within the family. The family members struggle with guilt, hope, and despair as they try to find the child. There are also elements of mystery as to what really happened to the child, like was it an accident or something more sinister.
