A character sketch of Grandmother from " The portrait of a lady" from hornbill book of class11

The author has described his grandmother very beautifully. He
compared her to the winter landscape in the mountains and expanse of pure
white serenity breathing peace and contentment. He used this simile to
describe the all whiteness associated with his grandmother. She always wore
spotless white dress. Her silver hair quite matched with her white attire. She
was very spiritual and religious. As a result she exuded purity and serenity
like a winter landscape. There were many appreciable qualities in Khushwant
Singh's grandmother. She was quite affectionate. She looked after the narrator
at the village so caringly that he did not feel the absence of his parents when
they went to the city to settle. She was
a strong woman who could adapt herself to any new challenging situation. May be
she derived that strength from her devotion to God. She was so divinely
dedicated to praying to God that she never left her rosary. Her feeding the
village dogs and then the sparrows show her love for animals. She found company
in them. And sparrows reciprocated her love and care. They didn't chirp at all;
nor did they eat a single crumb at her death. She was really a saintly woman.
