Publisher's summary

A Hindi translation of R.K. Narayan’s The World of Nagaraj by Rama Tiwari, the novel delves into the seemingly mundane yet secretly lively musings of a middle-aged man, Nagaraj. Residing in a small town, he lives by the conviction that there is some unfulfilled purpose in his life and is devoted to working towards this. But first, he must discover what his true calling is.

As he prepares to unravel his talent as a budding writer of epic literature, his leisurely life is gently unsettled by the arrival of his nephew, Tim. Although fond of the young man, Nagaraj and his wife, Sita, are alarmed at his decision to leave his father’s home suddenly and stay with them. Finding his writing mission and peaceful pace interrupted, Nagaraj attempts to understand and mentor his nephew, only to be drawn into a series of peculiar events. Tim’s mysterious late-night activities, his casual attitude towards his career, and his slippery ways challenge Nagaraj’s principles of discipline and righteousness.

Alternately witty, insightful, humorous and moving, the novel unfolds the worlds of two generations as they struggle with their identity and seek ways of coexisting. Will Nagaraj find a way to balance his own creative ambitions with the energetic tumult of the world around him? Will his literary pursuit fall through or face up to the challenges? Would his nephew’s decadence upturn his own moral universe? Will he adapt his stories to reflect the newly emerging world of youth and desire, or will he give up his storytelling ambitions?

Please note: This audiobook is in Hindi.
