can you solve this problem
My grandmother’s house is like chambered sea shell. It has many rooms, yet it is not a mansion. Its proportions are small and its design is simple. It is a house that has grown organically, according to the needs of its inhabitants. To all of us in the family, it is known as la casa de Mama. It is the place of our origin, the stage for our memories and dreams of Island life.
I remember how in my childhood the house sat on stilts, this was before it had a car park downstairs. It rested on its perch like a great blue bird, not a flying sort of bird, more like a nesting hen, but with spread wings. Grandfather had built it soon after their marriage. He was a painter and house-builder by trade, and a poet and meditative man by nature. As each of their eight children were born, new rooms were added. After a few years, the paint didn’t exactly match, nor the materials, so there was a chronology to it, like the rings of a tree, and Mama could tell you the history of each room in her casa. and thus, the genealogy of the family along with it.
Her own room is the heart of the house. Though I have seen it recently, both woman and room have diminished in size, changed by the new perspective of my eyes, now capable of looking over countertops and tall beds. It is not this picture I carry in my memory of Mama’s casa. Instead, I see her room as a queen’s chamber where a small woman loomed large, a throne room with a massive four poster bed in its centre, which stood taller than a child’s head. It was on this bed, where her own children had been born, that the youngest of the grandchildren was allowed to take naps in the afternoons; here too was where Mama secluded herself to dispense private advice to her daughters, sitting on the edge of the bed, looking down at whoever sat on the rocker, where generations of babies had been sung to sleep. To me, she looked like a wise empress right out of the fairy tales I was addicted to reading.
