character sketch on Mrs.Lapidus from The namesake
Answers
The namesake is an interesting prose lesson.
Gogol is the lead character in that story.
He is a school student and Mrs. Lapidus is the person who was the principal of the school where Gogol was studying.
She was the character who changed the name of the boy by understanding the boy’s mindset about his name and made him comfortable by enrolling the name he wished for.
The principal of Gogol's kindergarten. She's tall,lean woman with a warm heart and has a caring approach towards her students.Gogol parents instruct her to call Gogol by his formal name NIKHIL but when she asked Gogol that what he would like to be called,he answered GOGOL and she agrees with it. This shows that she is very open minded and has a great understanding of the child's behaviour and his attitude.
