Character development

The change of personality of a character, due to (changes) in personal circumstances, society, culture, other characters and such.

Chuck as a hard working man to a survivor on a remote island and later back to the 'normal world' again

class differences

Still in place in the UK today, but most often used when referring to pre-industrialized Britain, society was divided into classes; the working class, lower middle class, upper middle class and the upper class. In earlier times one’s class was determined by birth and it was well-nigh impossible to move up a class, making just that a rather popular topic in literature. 

Chuck is trying to survive and escape from a remote island, while Kelly is enjoying her normal life at home.
