explain with reference to context "you have an interesting face" from the lesson"eyes are not here"
Answers
Answer:
The narrator of the story grew familiar with his lady co-passanger during the train journey in the same compartment and was bold enough to tell on her face that her face was interesting. The lady accepted the compliment heartily and went so far as to say she had been fed of hearing that she had a pretty face. She acknowledged his courage and thanked him for his gallantry.
The narrator of “The Eyes Have It” by Ruskin Bond is the speaker here.
Narrator said this to the girl co-passenger in the train compartment.
Then the narrator intended to flatter the girl co-passenger with this remark. He wanted to discover the girl’s looks, but he could not because he was completely blind. during the train journey the narrator told the girl that she had an interesting face. Hearing this remark the girl reacted with a clear ringing laugh. She also told the narrator that she was used to hear the compliment ‘pretty’, now the adjective “interesting” was quite new to her.
Thus, the narrator came to know that the girl really had a pretty face. He mended his comment saying that an interesting face could also be a pretty face
