The narrator feels that since he has survived comfortably for five years without having to read or write, there is no reason why he can’t continue to do so for the rest of his life. He is sure that learning to read or write is not going to make sweetmeats taste sweeter or the sight of the hills, river and rainbow more charming. His acquaintance, a boy called Appu shared the same views. He claimed that nobody would force him to learn to read or write.
