English Teacher, The Book

This novel completes the trilogy which began with 'Swami and Friends' and 'The Bachelor of Arts'. The protagonist, Krishna, is an English teacher at the same college he had attended as a student. Although Krishna has recently married, his wife Susila and their daughter live with his parents-in-law some miles away. The story opens with his immediate family deciding to join him in Malgudi. Krishna is initially frightened by this new state of affairs, but he soon finds that his love for both his wife and child grows deeper than he could ever have imagined. The description of Krishna's married life - the first few weeks of happiness, the excrutiating agony during the weeks of Susila's death, the last journey to the cremation grounds - is an astonishingly moving and almost flawless piece of writing.Read More
