Magic of Malgudi

A master of observation, subtlety and gentle wit, R.K. Narayan has few rivals when it comes to bringing alive people and places. Most of his timeless novels are set in the fictional town of Malgudi, located somewhere in South India, a town as real to his readers as any they will find on a map. This volume contains three quintessential Malgudi novels - Swami and Friends, The Bachelor of Arts and The Vendor of Sweets.
