from a man-made world"

- The words chosen by Chitre are able to
make the reader uncomfortable by
using the lexical field of water, strong
adjectives, and a bright color.
- There are a series of verbs without subjects that create the idea of a
routine and make the reader feel compassionate towards the man
because the only way he finds a place in this world, his world, is by
having a routine. And we can figure out that the reason he has a
routine is because he believes that if he changes it he would loose
his place in society.

- "like a word dropped from
a long sentence"
- We can easily figure out
that this is a metaphor.
The sentence could either
be the world or the family
and the word represents
the man. The word
"dropped" emphasizes the
fact the father has been
rejecte

- "cling"
- It is also a reference to the father as to "cling"
means desperately holding. The father is
desperately "clinging" to the life that is left to

- His general
aspect : bag,
sloths, shoes,
meal
- Through the description of the bag,
the cloths, the shoes and the meal of
the father, the reader can identify the
man himself. All these descriptions
portray the self-neglection of the man.
Also, the meal and cloths are
metaphors of the father: the tea is
"weak", the man too, the chapati is
"stale", he is old, his bag is "falling
apart", he is becoming blind...
