Explain: “As for my grandmother being young and pretty, the thought was almost revolting”.


This question is from chapter 1 the portrait of a lady of class 11 english textbook. The Portrait of a Lady outline is a genuine story of the author’s grandma. The name of the writer is Kushwant Singh. His grandma was an old woman. The writer recounts to us the narrative of the youth that he had enjoyed with his grandma.

Final Answer :

The storyteller’s grandma was awfully old. She was unable to seem young and lovely. Her face was a mismatch of kinks. She was short, fat and marginally bowed. The general concept of her being young and pretty didn’t interest the brain.
