It is created out of the creative imagination of Narayan and embodies in itself the typical features of most of the cities of southern India. The action of all the novels of R.K. Narayan and of the majority of his stories takes place in Malgudi. Narayan described the Malgudi Town so vividly on the imaginary river Sarayu, its market street, railway station, Hair Saloon, college, bank, municipal committee Mempi hills, hotels, cinemas etc.and miniature society of Malgudi men, women, children, families and their relationship with one another. |
