Blog Prompt: Which part of Village by the Sea do you like best? State your reasons.

My favourite part of Village By The Sea was the part in which Hari left Bombay. I find this part interesting because this is the turning point in Hari's life. After suffering from the torment of his father, he finally succumbed and escaped to Bombay. You could also say that it was the climax of the story.

It was at Bombay when Hari met his benefactors, namely, Jagu and Mr Panwallah. Jagu provides Hari with a job, a place to stay,food and even tried to help Hari on some occasions. Without the help of Jagu, Hari would not have been able to survive in the mean streets of Bombay.

Mr Panwallah taught Hari many things, like how to adapt to the changes Thul is undergoing. Also, he taught Hari how to mend watches, which was very important in the later of the development of Thul.

Please comment.

  1. I agree with you that this part was very important and was what allowed Hari to change and learn how to be independent, earning a living all by himself.

  2. Well said, this part seems to me to be the climax too. I agree that statement which you made that said "is the turning point of his life" , this gives me a thought that this is the climax.

  3. Yes, I agree that this part is the turning point of Hari'life.However,I like the part that Hari came back to Thul with hope and future.When I read it, I feel very happy and proud of him.For me ,this is the part that I like the most.

    By the way,I wonder why you say 'Hari left Bombay' in the first paragraph.I think is 'left Thul.
