Could You Please Give A Book Review On Malgudi Days By RK Narayan?

English

Malgudi Days, written by R.K Narayan, chronicles the lives of people in the fictional town of Malgudi. The stories, which share the lives of everyone from entrepreneurs to beggars, all take place in and near this Indian village. The village is a place where most people are haunted by illiteracy and unemployment. Among the stories the reader meets an astrologer, a gatekeeper, and a young man yearning to pass the examinations. There are also animals including a forlorn dog who befriends a blind man and a ferocious tiger (perhaps a hint of Narayan's short novel, A Tiger for Malgudi). Above all there is a pervasive irony that reminded me of other short story stylists from O'Henry to Chekhov and Gogol. More often a character's dreams or expectations do not lead to the results he desires. This keeps the reader guessing as to what the next story will show in the lives of people who become endlessly fascinating, if only for the reason that you have met them before in your own town.

enot [183]

The correct answer is D) the medicine bags and the sprinkle cornmeal.

<em>The detail in the excerpt that indicates that Leon and his family still carry out traditional Pueblo practices is the medicine bags and the sprinkle cornmeal. </em>

The traditional Pueblo practice is found in the text when the author writes: “She touches his arm and he noticed that her hands were still dusty from the cornmeal that she had sprinkled around the old man.” Traditions from people from Pueblo, New Mexico, are an important part of their culture.

What is one effect that parallelism has on a written work?
lilavasa [31]

D. it clearly connects ideas

Parallelism is when the same grammatical or sentence structure is used for a list of ideas or items. By using a similar grammatical structure the reader's brain automatically makes a connection between the ideas because of the similar structure. Caesar's famous line "I came. I saw. I conquered." is an example of parallelism. Each of the sentences has the format subject-past tense verb.
