Answer 2

Answer: Engine Trouble by R.K Narayan is truly an Indian story of unlucky draw.

Explanation: The meaning is developed through the characters, especially the narrator, who may be Narayan's own unflattering self-portrait. Like Narayan, the narrator is a middle class man struggling to rise above his origins. Although the narrator wants to adapt to the dominant middle class culture, he remains profoundly attached to his own family sentiment.
