Comment on theme

Luck of the Titanic explores how distinctions are made between groups of people based on class differences. These classes may be identified by social standing, financial status, or even ethnicity or heritage. In most cases, the upper class has advantages not afforded to the lower classes. This novel is set aboard the Titanic, a ship built to cater to the wealthy passengers, but there are accommodations for those not able to afford the first-class tickets.
