Where is Living Space set?

• A. London
• B. New Delhi
• C. Sydney
• D. Mumbai

Answer: (D)

The main idea here is identifying the setting shown through the poem’s imagery of a tiny, improvised living space inside a crowded urban landscape. The poem centers on makeshift homes built from scraps, crafted in a way that shows resilience amid precarious conditions. This kind of description points to Mumbai, India, famous for its dense slums like Dharavi where people create living spaces in tight, newly formed, improvised structures within the vast city.

Choosing Mumbai fits because the poem’s tone and details align with the reality of that city’s informal housing and the everyday fight to secure a tiny home. London or Sydney would bring very different urban textures, and while New Delhi is Indian, the specific atmosphere and focus on this particular form of urban makeshift housing are most closely associated with Mumbai’s famous slum environment.
