CHAPTER CONTEXT

About My Mother at Sixty Six

This CBSE Class 12 English Core chapter explains My Mother at Sixty Six by Kamala Das through a daughter's sudden awareness of her mother's ageing. The poem shows a car journey where the speaker notices her mother's pale, lifeless face, contrasts it with young trees and children outside, and hides her fear behind a parting smile.

The poem highlights ageing, separation, childhood fear, love, helplessness, and emotional restraint. It is useful for board exams, school tests, and revision because questions often focus on imagery, contrast, simile, the airport scene, the repeated smile, poetic devices, and the speaker's silent fear of losing her mother.
