A literary work is often foregrounded both in thought and centent and it definitely reveals a worldview despite its social, political and ideological natural status. This book makes a systematical analysis that Indo-Anglian novel is a social document and R.K. Narayan's fiction and non-fiction are not an exception to this form. An attempt has been made to understand the comic ironic mode of the novelist and the suitability of this mode to his content.
