Book Review 2-02

I read "Rich Man, Poor Man".

A old man, Minta got a money order from his son. It was worth one hundred pounds. Minta went to the Post Office in Darpur to change his money order into money. However, he could not get money because he didn't have his Identity Card. He tried to make his Identity Card. First, he took a photograph of himself for his Identity Card. He could not get his photograph because of a quackery of a photographer! Minta got angry, and hit the photographer. Finally, Minta could not get his Identity Card. He asked Mr. Sheth who is an important man in Darpur. Mr. Sheth said that this money order was worth nothing because it was not correct and it was out-of-date! Mr. Sheth was sorry for Minta, and Mr. Sheth gave ten pounds to Minta. However Minta was not happy, because one hundred pounds of his money order changed only ten pounds....

I felt pity for Minta. The goodwill of his son was wasted. I thought that he did not have to be disappointed because it was better than nothing! I want him to be happy. I want to be a rich man!!
