Name of the book; Village by the see
By; Anita Desai
Story; of an Indian family A story of an Indian family, staying in a village, called Thul, almost 14 miles away form Mumbai one of the most famous cities of India. This family consists of a mother who is very sick and lying in bed all the time, father who drinks all the time and is unable to work due to his hard drinking habit, three sisters and a brother, the two younger sisters who are studying at school, and an elder sister who has stopped going to school due to economical problems, and now looking after the family and a younger brother who also stopped going to school sue to the same reason and is supposed to look after the family.
These two the elder sister and the younger brother are the sole food provider to the family while having nothing behind them or at hand. A very small hut and a small piece of land which is not adequate to make a living on, so the life is very difficult and full of sorrows, to be honest I wept sometimes while reading this novel sometimes because of their tough condition of life and their wisdom and sometimes because of the success of them over something difficult which gave me an inner happiness, victory and joyful tears. This book is really very emotional and sensitive, in fact you should have that feeling other wise you won’t realize it.
I will not reveal anymore about the book, you will have to read it so it can be more interesting and understandable.
Now I will give a brief analysis of the book from my point of views
The book covers the following aspects which every one in its own turn has its own unique role in the life of the family or as a whole for all human beings. They are as follows;
1.The village, its living conditions and the simplicity of the people;
It is really very clear that the condition of living in a village is having very low standard comparing to cities. There is very less opportunity of a job in a village than in a city. There is no clean water,
