After reading the amazing and interesting book, Village By the Sea, I feel that I liked the part where Hari goes to Alibagh to fetch his mother home from the hospital in page 242. I liked this part the best as I feel relieved when I read it seeing that their once dysfunctional family is now reunited. I am also happy when I see that Hari's father has stopped being a drunkard and went to Alibagh to look after their sick mother.
Their family has been very lucky which is a stark contrast from the start of the book as De Silvas helped Lila and her parents while Hari was in Bombay and Hari met very helpful and kind-hearted people in Bombay like Jagu and Mr. Panwalla. Overall, I like this part of the book the best as it signifies a happy closure of the story with the impression that they would live happily ever after. All these would also have not been possible without the strong bond and maturity in Hari and Lila.
