what is main theme of story the dear departed???
Answers
The lesson 'Dear Departed' focuses on the family values that are dwindling fast in the society. Materialism has so much affected the modern man's life that even the respectful relationship between father and daughters has become tainted with it. The lesson highlights this aspect of the tainted relationship with unmatched craftsmanship by weaving a wonderful and absorbing sequence of events. The poetic justice at the end is the real mastery of the playwright. Abel's vengeful response to the selfish daughters leaves them stupefied and stunned. They are left penitent and remorseful for their meanness. Thus the theme of the play quite interesting and edifying!
Dear departed is an electrifying story written by steely Houghton which focus on the materialism between the respectful relationship nowadays
