Question

central idea of English project of the lost child

Answer 1

The story ‘The Lost Child’ is very emotional. The author Mulk Raj Anand has brought before us the bustling and fervent movements during the festive season in a village. The setting is a village street where the seasonal fair was going on during spring with groves and flowering mustard field near the street. The story dates back sometime before the contemporary period. There were people riding on horses on roads and others sitting and carried in the bamboo and bullock carts. With only four characters without any names, – the child, the hero, his parents, and unknown man who tried to console the lost and sobbing child - the author has made them immortal in our minds.
