What change took place in Derry when he met Mr. lamb? |
|
Answer» The play ‘On the Face of It’ features an old man and a small boy. The man is Mr Lamb and the boy Derry who met him in the former’s garden. Derry was withdrawn and defiant. Once he got acid all down on one side of his face. The acid burnt it all away. This created a complex in his mind. Only his mother kissed him and that too on the other side of his face. People looked at his face and passed uncharitable remarks. Mr Lamb was a physically challenged man. He got a tin leg. Children teased him calling ‘Lamey—Lamb’. He had a positive attitude towards life. Mr Lamb’s meeting with Derry brought a turn in Derry’s life. He persuaded him that he could be better than rest of the people. He developed confidence in Derry to face the world in a more positive way. |
