Abstract

: Malgudi forms the setting to all the works of Narayan. It is a symbol of India. It is a typically South Indian town and it has been presented in his works vividly and realistically. Even its past history is given and, in successive novels, we see it changing, growing and becoming different. All the ten novels and most of the short stories are set in Malgudi.
