“The Home coming’ is a touching story of a boy of fourteen years. Back in village he was happy and free. He played his boyish pranks and has the fun common to his age but life last all its charms when he was sent to calcutta. Instead of love he received contraption, insult and beating. This made the boy unhappy and adversely affected his progress in school; the unloved boy fell sick and died. According to me Phatik was transplanted from village life which was full of mischief and pleasure to a life to city where he had no one to love and give affection to him. He realized the values of home and love because of neglect from his uncle’s family and separation from his mother. During his illness this wild boy turned mature and understands what is home.
