Answer 2

Engine Trouble

R.K.Narayan

The wife threatened to call her father and have him take her away. The author was befuddled and strained to the point of exhaustion.

• The narrator has no use for a road engine, and all he can do is hope that someone will buy it from him or that he will be able to give it away to someone else.
• It serves no useful purpose and is costing the narrator money in the form of rent.
• Similarly, the narrator's marriage is beginning to suffer as a result of the troubles brought on by the road engine.
• To make matters worse, those in charge (the Municipal Chief) want the road engine moved, causing the narrator even more problems.
• He needs to hire an elephant and fifty men, but the road engine runs into a wall while attempting to move it.
• There are traces of irony in the story, to be sure.
