The writerly life
By R. K. Narayan and S. Krishnan
| Narayan Is Better Known For His Novels Set In The Fictional South Indian Town Of Malgudi, But His Essays Are As Delightful And Enchanting As Any Of His Novels. This Collection Includes The Short Essays Narayan Wrote As A Weekly Contribution To The Hindu, Longer Essays That Dwell On The Cultural Ambiguities That Persist In Our Nation And His Jottings About His Travels In America. The Pieces Range From His Scathingly Funny Essay On The Making Of The Film The Guide, English Writing In India, His Encounter With The Mysterious Greta Garbo To The Evening Gathering Where He Is Hailed As One Of The Three Greatest Living Authors In The World. Taken Together These Writings Provide A Fascinating Glimpse Into The Private World Of One Of The Most Gifted Writers Of Our Time And Reveal The Ways In Which Narayan Was Able To Convert The Small And Ordinary Things Of Everyday Life Into Memorable Literary Anecdotes. | |
