Abstract

English Literature
The Mother I Never Knew, Gerontology, Youngsters, in search of older parents, family bonding, responsibility
The introduction part traces the theme and settings used by the author Sudha Murthy in her novel The Mother I Never Knew. The novel deals with how younger adults show interest to go in search of their biological parents. The significance of the geriatrics and the study that deals with geriatrics is also elucidated in this paper. The novel comprises of two novellas which deal with two different plots yet dealing with same theme. This paper narrates about the first novella speaking about the protagonist Venkatesh. The theory of Disengagement is applied to this story in order to narrate how the protagonist is actively participating according to the expectations of the society. And it also tries to highlight how the elders portrayed in the novel have denied their duties and escapes from the societal expectations. Disengagement theory was formulated by Cumming and Henry in the year 1961. Further this paper explains how the protagonist ceaselessly takes efforts to take responsibility to solve his elders’ burden, a left out duty. He finds out that his father and grandmother have ignored a family and had been a reason for the family’s miseries and agony. He probes further into his father’s buried past and realizes that he has a step mother and a step brother. Against all his family opposition he tries hard to help the recently found family by giving away his half of fortunes inherited from his father. Will his efforts be fruitful and will he be able to pay his debts remains to be the rest of the plot. Venkatesh tries hard to help out the newly found family though it was not a necessary deed for him to do so.
