That's an wonderful observation, Sheryl, that you said for the thread collectors. I mean, one of the things that we wanted to be able to do was create a story in which we told within, you know, incredible historical accuracy and emotional authenticity of two men, and also their Beloved's and how they were experiencing a, you know, the historical backdrop of the Civil War, which is, you know, the largest death toll in our country's history, over 600,000 men perished during the Civil War. But as different as Jacob and Williams situation is, as Union soldiers, you know, the black soldiers were treated completely horrifically, you know, they they fled enslavement with great risk to themselves patrollers were on their back, you know, if they were caught, the punishment could often be death. And when they arrived to enlist, to fight for freedom, instead of being given muskets to fight, they were given pickaxes and hoes and forced to dig ditches, do manual labor, and also bury their fallen white soldiers. But one of the things that we wanted to do was show that when you had two musicians who meet on the battlefield, the language of music is this connective tissue between the two men. And it's something that enables them to, you know, experience and unexpected friendship in which music binds them together, and they learn from each other. And there's empathy between these two men that, you know, originally you might think that William and Jacob have nothing in common, they come from completely different backgrounds, different religions, different experiences as you highlighted, but in the end, they discover that they have what we all have in common this need to love to protect our family. And then men in the case of this art, artistry between them this shared music, you know, shared language of music, it's something that you know, connects them and with Stella and Lily, again, to women completely different backgrounds. Lily's up in New York with a you know, embarrassment of riches at her fingertips with, you know, an abundance of cloth and thread to make quilts that she's sending down to the Union army. Whereas in parallel Stella is using every scrap of cloth that she can, she can scavenge every piece of thread and creating maps to help enslaved men run for freedom. And yet as the book you know, hurdles towards its, you know, ending you start to see, you know, the connective tissue between those two women as well.
