The major themes are class division, racial difference, adultery, personal competitiveness, and human nature in reaction to fate. The strong thread running through the stories is alienation and contrast – between people and cultures. For most of the characters, after a crisis in their circumstances, life seems to take up where it left off and closes over the revelations that brought on the drama. People who are regarded as sane and level-headed, reliable and "well brought-up" show their unexpected real character in a crisis, their inner workings become exposed in reaction to surprise events.

Boccaccio's influence can be seen in Christine's stance on female education. In the tale of Rhea Ilia, Boccaccio advocates for young women's right to choose a secular or religious life. He states that it is harmful to place young girls into convents while they are “ignorant, or young, or under coercion.” Boccaccio states that girls should be “well brought up from childhood in the parental home, taught honesty and praiseworthy behavior, and then, when they are grown and with their entire mind know what of their own free will” choose the life of monasticism.

Hibbin welcomed the opportunities presented by the war and enlisted in the WAAF. She later said: "Before the war, there was virtually no way well-brought-up young women could leave home and the prospect was simply that you got married to leave home. And now suddenly there was this possibility of joining the WAAF ... [We] knew we would learn a trade, we would travel, and ... just the mere fact of leaving home meant a lot, being free from the chores that were expected of women ..." She worked as a mechanic on Spitfire fighter planes at RAF Hendon, north of London. A contributor to Picture Post magazine, Hibbin wrote captions for photographs of working people.

Shirley is a given name and a surname originating from the English place-name Shirley, which is derived from the Old English elements scire ("shire") or scīr ("bright, clear") and lēah ("wood, clearing, meadow, enclosure"). The name makes reference to the open space where the moot (an early English assembly of freemen which met to administer justice and discuss community issues) was held. Shirley was originally a male name, but its use in Charlotte Brontë's novel Shirley (1849) established it as a female name. In the American Jewish society of the middle twentieth century described in Herman Wouk's novel Marjorie Morningstar, it is used as a pejorative term for "a typical, conventional, well-brought up New York Jewish girl, who will ultimately want a stable husband and family"; the book's protagonist is repeatedly told that her artistic inclinations are but a sham, since she is "a Shirley at heart".

Jüdischer Friedhof Berlin weißensee - 59 Markus Reich was born in 1844 in Kaolin, Bohemia. In 1865, when he was 21 years old, he went to Germany to learn everything that he could to become qualified to become a teacher for the deaf at the Jewish Teachers Training College and from 1870-1871 worked and studied at the Royal Institution for the Deaf in Berlin. Reich also worked as a private tutor which he used his money to purchase books about the deaf and deafness. His inspiration and drive came from an acquaintance he had with a deaf man who “was educated, well brought up, and could speak.” Reich saw how having a good education positively affected his acquaintance life that he was determined to “make complete, worthy, happy people of the deaf.” While attending the Royal Institution of the Deaf he noticed that Jewish children were denied admission into the school.
