Short and to the points summary of 'A Letter To God':
In the chapter ‘A Letter to God’, Lencho is a farmer who has immense faith in God. One harvest season, the rains fail and Lencho shows utmost faith by saying that definitely God will send the showers to quench the parched land. He keeps looking at the sky and says that the skies are getting darker. True to his faith it starts to rain and he considers the raindrops as coins and rushes out to drench in the rains.
Unfortunately, in a few minutes, the rains turn into a hailstorm and strong winds destroy all the crops. Lencho is very disappointed and decided to write a letter to God beseeching that if he does not help him, his family will have to go in hunger that year. He writes a letter and posts it. The postmaster is amused by the letter as it is addressed to God.
The employees of the post office decide that this unshaken faith in God should not be destroyed and they all pitch in and send him money. They could collect only 70 pesos instead of 100 as desired by the farmer. They posted it to the farmer, but while Lencho the farmer was happy that God sent him money, he was disappointed that the employees at the post office stole a part of the money.
This story brings out the irony that man is ready to accept and have faith in God whom he has not seen but is not ready to have faith in other human beings whom he can see. That is the irony in this story.
