The Gift of a Cow, Second Edition: A Translation from the Hindi Novel
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This widely-praised translation of Premchand's most celebrated novel is now in a second edition, with a new introduction by Vasudha Dalmia. It is a portrayal of social inequality that reflects the context in which it was written, during the rural upheavals of the 1920s and 1930s. An engaging introduction to north India before Independence, Godaan is at once village ethnography, moving human document, and insightful colonial history.
