[16] Meggie’s story is told in a series of journals that move through the elements: Water from 1891-1905, Air from 1905-1909 and Earth from 1910-1932. The tale is beautifully told, rich with Doric, Scottish and Shetland dialect that’s so pervasive you’ll be using it, aye, in your own speech as you fall into the rhythms of its cadences. The writing is also full of the detail of its historical setting. The images are harsh and beautiful, from the cold wind biting through hand knitted clothing and salt dried skin, to gorse and multi-coloured flowers on cliff faces full of puffins. Amidst the bleak beauty is Meggie’s own wonderfully canny observations as she grows from a wee bairn to a young women, discovering herself and unravelling the hushed-up groundswell of tragedy that underpins her world: This is the sixth Pixar film to have a female protagonist after Brave, Inside Out, Finding Dory, Incredibles 2, and Turning Red, as well as the first original movie to have a female protagonist with a love interest. It's compelling in episodes and feels well researched in terms of the historical anecdotes that accompany the origin (isolation) stories of various elements by different scientists. James involves physics and biology and does a good job making the chemistry accessible.

There’s the wonderful description of the puffin that made my son ask me why I was smiling, eyes closed; there’s the central mystery revolving around Brukie’s Sandy; there’s Granda Jeemsie, and the coda at the end. Read it. The First World War happens while Meggie is married in Australia and her husband eventually goes to war. I felt that this book gave a better representation of "life for those left at home" than or previous book which majored on WW1. it also dealt better with the return of her "damaged" husband. After the flood dies down, the rest of Firetown find Ember holding the Blue Flame and crying over the loss of Wade. She apologizes to her father for nearly ruining the family legacy and finally admits that she does not want to run the Fireplace because it is his dream, not hers. Bernie assures her it was not about the Blue Flame or the shop, but it is about her that was his dream. The Lumens and the other fire people suddenly hear Wade crying and Ember finds Wade's moisture on the stone ceiling of the alcove. Remembering the Ripples' crying game, she plays it to make Wade cry, with Cinder accepting his and Ember's genuine love as a perfect match and Bernie unbanning him from the Fireplace, and he drips out of the ceiling and reforms.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Sohn says the film's seven-year development period with Elemental is closely tied to his relationship with his family, when the idea first started, following the release of The Good Dinosaur. He revealed that Ember was born in Element City, but grew up in a fire town, since the neighborhoods are split up. He stated: "I am quite emotional about getting the characters and the story out for sure." He also stated: "This movie is about thanking your parents and understanding their sacrifices. My parents both passed away during the making of this thing. And so, it is hugely emotional, and I'm still processing a lot of it." [23]

In the coda, "Fire" - when Laura as a woman in her fifties finally receives her grandmother's notebooks - there's the realisation: "Love shouldn't be passive. You should be required to, you know, GIVE it. She was just there, always there, and it was like I forgot to love her." I've been guilty of that, too. Rudoy, Matthew (August 1, 2023).

The first, for me, was Hannah Kent's highly anticipated Burial Rites. The second was Elemental. Written by Perth local, Amanda Curtin, this book takes its structure from the four earthly elements of Water, Air, Earth and Fire and travels almost the entire length of the globe, from Roanhaven Scotland, to Fremantle Western Australia. Like Annabel Smith's Whisky Charlie Foxtrot, Curtin's book is self reflexive and takes notions of story from it's inherent shape.
