This discussion delves into key passages from Joseph Conrad's "Heart of Darkness" and Arundhati Roy's "The God of Small Things." We analyze the significance of specific sections, such as the kathakali performance, Chacko and Margaret Kochamma's history, and interactions involving Vellya Paapen and Mammachi, as well as Chacko's relationship with Comrade Pillai. Additionally, we reflect on Chinua Achebe's essay, summarizing his thesis and discussing points of agreement and disagreement, fostering a deeper understanding of these profound texts.
