➤  Grandmother's House Summary in English

The poem 'My Grandmother's House' is written by Kamala Das was a popular Indo-Anglian poetess who wrote both in Malayalam and English. The poetess's feminine sensibility comes out beautifully in all her poems. The poem reveals her painful and unfulfilled desire to visit her grandmother's house of which she has beautiful and everlasting memories. The poetess is shocked to see the house in ruins and suffers silently while going around the house and remembering her childhood days. The intensity of her grief is beyond repair. As a young woman today, she is sad because of her loveless marriage and in her frustration, she begs for love at strangers' doors in order to compensate for her grandmother's love.

➤ Grandmother's House Summary in Hindi

'माई ग्रैंडमदर्स हाउस' कविता कमला दास द्वारा लिखी गई है, जो एक लोकप्रिय इंडो-एंग्लियन कवयित्री थीं, जिन्होंने मलयालम और अंग्रेजी दोनों में लिखा था। कवयित्री की स्त्री संवेदना उनकी सभी कविताओं में खूबसूरती से सामने आती है। कविता में उसकी दादी के घर जाने की उसकी दर्दनाक और अधूरी इच्छा का पता चलता है, जिसकी उसके पास खूबसूरत और चिरस्थायी यादें हैं। कवयित्री घर को खंडहर देखकर हैरान हो जाती है और घर के चारों ओर घूमते हुए और अपने बचपन के दिनों को याद करते हुए चुपचाप पीड़ा सहती है। उसके दुःख की तीव्रता की भरपाई नहीं की जा सकती। आज एक युवा महिला के रूप में, वह अपनी प्रेमहीन शादी के कारण दुखी है और अपनी निराशा में, वह अपनी दादी के प्यार की भरपाई के लिए अजनबियों के दरवाजे पर प्यार की भीख मांगती है।
