                        The essays in this book have been divided into two sections. The first section examines one of Narayn`s major works, The Guide. The essays here discuss the genesis of the novel, narrative structure, use of language, humour and irony in the novel, the characters, and also the post-colonial quality of The Guide. The second section situates The Guide within the larger context of Narayan`s life and works, Narayan as a novelist, themes and characters in his novels, Narayan`s Malgudi, and Narayan as an Indian English writer. These essays will be essential reading for students who study The Guide, and also Narayan`s works as a whole.
