Mansarovar - Part 2

November 7, 2016

Premchand is at its best. I have read both mansarovar 1 and 2. These book are collections of short stories. All stories are work of fiction but gives great insight in the village life of contemporary india in which premchand lived. Some stories shows good side of the village setup whiles others shows dark side of the village life. Stories takes into account various problems faced by the people on those days. Most stories gives moral message at the end. Premchand has very well thought style of writing where he raises many important social issues of his time in humorous and some time in sad way. Every story has different way of writing. In these two books reader may find 8-9 different style of writing as it may seem as stories are from different writer. Premchand gives minute details of main character and other minor characters are left to the imagination of reader. Many stories are ended in a such way that it gives reader much food for thought. Mansarovar can be best enjoyed if reader pauses for sometime after each story and tries to think about character and the message story gives. I started with casual reading but after few stories I realise stories have much deeper meaning in them.
Here I share some of my favorite lines from Mansarovar-
