$\huge\color {blue}\boxed{\colorbox{black}{♛answer♛}}$

Rukmani is the novel’s protagonist and narrator. She is a peasant farmer, wife, and mother living in rural India. At the age of twelve she marries a poor farmer, Nathan. She soon becomes a mother and faces the daunting task of providing for an increasing number of children, including Irawaddy, Arjun, Thambi, Murugan, Raja, Selvam, Kuti, and the adopted Puli. Rukmani has a practical, humble, and positive disposition; she’s an efficient housekeeper, never hesitates to work hard, and buoys the spirits of her family during hard times. Her greatest delights are her children and her relationship with her kindly husband, for whom she feels unabashed sexual desire. Rukmani’s enjoyment of the simple pleasures of her life is balanced by her total resignation to the calamities that befall her. Even when famine claims her son Kuti, and her son Raja dies during an altercation in the town’s tannery, Rukmani unhesitatingly accepts that such things are a natural part of life and can’t be avoided. This attitude helps her cope with the suffering she experiences, but it also prevents her from acting to improve her lot in life. Rukmani’s sole aspiration is to keep her family together, and in this she fails; by the end of the novel, Nathan has died prematurely, and most of her sons have dispersed to find their fortune elsewhere. However, in her old age Rukmani emerges as contented and wise, grateful to repose among her remaining children and grandchildren after a turbulent life....
