Question

What are at least three objects associated with Mr. Pirzada, and what do they symbolize?

Answer 1

Answer:

The three objects were candy, pocket watch and the pumpkin.

Explanation:

The candy itself represents hope and a connection between Mr. Pirzada, his daughters.

Mr. Pirzada's pocket watch, which he wound eleven hours ahead to correspond with the time in Dacca, his home. The watch itself symbolizes his family.

Finally, the last largely significant symbol was the pumpkin/jack-o-lantern. When the pumpkin is fresh and un-carved, that symbolizes Mr. Pirzada at home when he did not have to worry over his family because he knew they were safe. When the pumpkin is sliced into and the top and innards scooped out, it is parallel to when Mr. Pirzada had to leave his family behind amongst a civil war.

Answer 2

Book showing his knowledge.

Feathers showing his gentleness.

Bombs showing his integrity.
