Why has the poet’s mother been compared to the “late winter’s moon”? ORWhy has Kamala Das compared her mother to a “late winter’s moon”? |
|
Answer» The poet has used this simile as ‘the late winter’s moon’ looks too hazy and lacks brightness and lustre. Similarly, the mother, who is now sixty-six, is pale and has a shrunken and ashen face. She is devoid of the effervescence and exhilaration of youth. |
