The Weed

The main character in the story is Angoori. What makes her unique to write about is because she marries a man all because her dad dried Prabhati wet towel. The most significant feature about her is that she loves to wear rings and all sort of jewellery all over her body from her head to the toe. One odd in the story is why did she have to marry a man all because her dad fried a guys towel? Another is that city girls can't read or its a sin, but village woman's can and won't be a sin. I don't see why but I'm guessing it's because of her religion. The reader should learn that everybody has a different way of life, and that nobody is going to be the same as somebody next to them. Also, they should learn from how different religions are and what we do sometimes they cannot. Like here in the U.S the girls can wear anything they won't, but in some other countries girls have to cover their whole body head to toe from everybody even thought guys don't have to.  One unfamiliar word that I have found in this story is "purdah". When I look it up, it means the Hindu or Muslim system of sex segregation, practiced especially by keeping women in seclusion. I think it was used in the content because Angoori was suppose to be keep in place and not break the law or do anything she’s not suppose to do.
