The Portrait of a Lady by Khushwant Singh was my read for the day. Now I know what everyone thinks of Mr. Singh and his writing, however I would beg to differ. To a very large extent, he just says it how it is and several writers do that too. I also dont think that there is an age to stop talking about sex. It is purely hypocritical of some people if they think this way and behave in another. Anyway, coming back to todays story.

The Portrait of a Lady is a story of a grandmother it is the... portrait of a grandmother, and the relationship she shares with her grandson from the time he is with her in the village to the time she is with him in the city and thereon. The story to a large extent also felt autobiographical and perhaps could be as well. I loved the story. The sentiment and the way Singh describes the bond in merely five pages, gave me more insight into his writing and how powerful it can be. A short story that will touch your heart.
