Exaggeration and distortion are very valuable tools in art and language. Painters (and writers) often use caricature to distort a character but caricature also makes logical sense. Look at the last sentence of the story. It mentions 'silver spoon'. An old English expression involves "having a silver spoon in one's mouth."
Was the last one of the story comedy? What social point does it make? What aspect of the crime was significant in this story? Was their one or two crimes? What did the author want to say about Sir Jee’s character? What astonished you? Is there anything you learned from reading this story?
