Literal Comprehension:
There is telegram on lying on the table.It contains a tragic news but Krishna has not given any attention over it.One of his friend has provided sympathy to him about the bad news but also he is not affected.He is doing his work normally as always.He guides the tourist about Nepalese art and culture.He has an strong desire of going USA with the tourist girl.He was so much engaged in city life and pleasure that he didn't have the time to remember his village.Butt today,the telegram on the table attracts him.He couldn't stop himself.He remained asleep.And finally,he read the telegram and started crying bitterly in which the death of his beloved wife was mentioned.
Interpretation:
The story is trying to tell us that in this materialistic and selfish world,people thinks about themselves only.They don't have time for others.Even for the wife.It also clarifies that when people migrate from village to the city,they are so much lost in city life that they never miss their village.Similarly, it also hints hat the desire of prosperity within a person goes on increasing.A simple village boy firstly aims for city life.And when he achieves the city life,he further desires for foreign countries.The story reflects that when a person become prosperous,he forgets his bad and painful days.He desires for better future,but is never ready to think and remember his worst past.
Critical Thinking:
The story is marvelously written.The true context of Nepalese society and youth is reflected in the story.Usually,every young and adult boy in our society dreams for going abroad and settling there.They only think about money and pleasure.Besides these pros of the story, it has not been able to solve some queries like does it is really practicable? Is it possible for a person to forget his beloved wife so easily?He has got the notice of his wife's death but hasn't he got the illness or problem told before? Why the people informed only after her death?He could have informed before she died?At the end, f he was so emotional than why could he stayed calmly for weeks?
Assimilation:
The story taught me that I shouldn't be over aiming.Presently,I am far from my village and my parents.This story has encouraged me to be in touch with my parents.This story reminded me one incident.One boy near my village was over excited to go abroad.But his parents always used to deny, because he was the only son. In front of his stubborn, the parents couldn't do anything.He married a girl and left her with his parents and flew to Dubai. He didn't had contact with his family for 3 years.After 3 years,the parents got a notice of his death in car crash.This was an very bitter situation for his wife and family.
