The Best Part of Village By The Sea |

Hi guys, back again. I will be talking on, what I feel, is the best part of Village By the Sea.
As you can see the little picture of the book cover, this quaint yet not so quaint village has a lot of stories to tell.
However, the part of the story I liked most was at the end of the story. All went well-- Hari's mother was now healthy and moving, Hari's father gave up drinking for good, and Hari returned from Bombay with wads of cash.
As the reunited, bonding family gathers together for Diwali, Hari and his sisters seem so carefree now, elated at their rebonding. While their father feels sorry for his children, having to carry the burden of supporting the household, Hari and his sisters forgave him (I wonder how they managed to, after all those bad experiences). Their mother could now do the household chores, and the children could return to being children again, doing what children ought to do. Hari's watch mending skills could also be put to good use, but the most of all, they had enough money to support themselves.
I know that this was meant to be a fairytale story, but after all that hardship Hari has gone through, who would not feel joyful that Hari's work had paid off and reaped good results? What's more, fairy tales are supposed to have a happy ending!
