Cronin  \n========================================================  \nAbout the Author :  \nArchibald Joseph Cronin (1896-1981), apart from being renowned author, was a medical doctor. He was well-known for combining realism with social criticism in his works which earned him accolades. He was also known for his narrative skill, power of acute observation and graphic description. His first novel, Hatter's Castle (1931), was received with great success. However, it was his fourth novel The Stars Look Down (1935) which made him famous across the world and cemented his place among the great writers of 20th century British fiction.  \nAbout the Text:  \nThe story is about two brothers whom the narrator meets while he is on a holiday in Verona. The narrator finds the two brother working different  \nkinds of odd jobs tirelessly. He relies on the brothers for his needs throughout the holiday and grows curious about the brothers. He finds them child-like, yet very dedicated to their jobs. He finds an opportunity to  \ndrive to the boys' hometown and discovers their tragic back-story which makes him respect the boys even more.  \n=======================================================  \nAs we drove through the foothills of the Alps two small boys stopped us on the outskirt of Verona. They were selling wild strawberries, bright scarlet berries that looked delicious against the dark-green leaves lining the wicker baskets.  \n'Don't buy', warned Luigi, our cautious driver. 'You will get fruit much better in Verona. Besides, these boys…..\" He shrugged his shoulders to convey his disapproval of their shabby appearance.  \nOne boy had a worn jersey and cut-off Khaki pants, the other a shortened army tunic gathered in loose folds about his skinny frame. Yet, gazing at the two little figures, with their brown skins, tangled hair and dark earnest eyes, we felt ourselves strangely attracted. My companion spoke to the boys, discovered that they were brothers. Nicola, the elder, was 13, Jacopo, who barely came up to the door handle of the car, was nearly 12. We bought their biggest basket, then set off toward town.  \nVerona is a lovely city, rich in history, with quiet medieval streets and splemdid buildings of an exquisite pale honey colour. Romeo and Juliet are reputed to have lived there. Bombed in the recent war, it has lost its bridges, but not its gaiety or charm.  \nNext morning, coming out of our hotel. we drew up short. There, bent over shoeshine boxes beside the fountain in the public square, doing a  \nbrisk business, were our two young friends of the previous afternoon. We  \nwatched for a few moments; then as trade slackened, we went over. They greeted us with friendly faces.  \n'I thought you picked fruit for a living', I said.  \n'We do many things, sir', Nicola answered seriously. He glanced at us hopefully. 'Often we show visitors through the town…to Juliet's tomb….and other places of interest' .  \n'All right', I smiled. 'You take us along.'  \nAs we made the tounds my interest was again provoked by their remarkable demeanor. They were childish enough, and in many ways they should have been, was lively as a squirr","cbCaifbOGPT8SWo1","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifbOGPT8SWo1","pdf",3807619,183,"English","# Five Short Stories\n## Short QA, Long QA, and Short Notes\n# Grammar\n## Parts of Speech\n## Tenses\n## Word Building\n# Internal Marks\n## Assignments\n## Unit Test\n## MCQ Test\n## Regular Attendance\n# Story Text and Author Overview\n## About the Author: A.J.
