Book excerpt: A venerable tiger, old and toothless now, looks back over his life from cubhood and early days roaming wild in the Indian jungle. Trapped into a miserable circus career as 'Raja the magnificent', he is then sold into films (co-starring with a beefy Tarzan in a leopard skin) until, finding the human world too brutish and bewildering, he makes a dramatic bid for freedom. R.K. Narayan's story combines Hindu mysticism with ripe Malgudi comedy, viewing human absurdities through the eyes of a wild animal and revealing how, quite unexpectedly, Raja finds sweet companionship and peace.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sohra is the Khasi name for Cherrapunjee, well known for being the wettest place on earth. The Sohra summer is the background against which Bor and his family trace the pattern of their lives. It is a close-knit matrilineal society hitherto not exposed to the outside world. This book although written primarily to satisfy the story telling urge, is also about the need to express the universal predicament of existence, of being, in a social milieu peculiar to the Khasi living in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Book excerpt: R. K. Narayan (1906—2001) witnessed nearly a century of change in his native India and captured it in fiction of uncommon warmth and vibrancy. Swami and Friends introduces us to Narayan’s beloved fictional town of Malgudi, where ten-year-old Swaminathan’s excitement about his country’s initial stirrings for independence competes with his ardor for cricket and all other things British. Written during British rule, this novel brings colonial India into intimate focus through the narrative gifts of this master of literary realism.
