Abstract

For the writers of India, the ancient classics and legends are an indispensable background for their writings. R.K Narayan is one such writer. He deals all the modern problems of the society through literature. He deals modern problems realistically or symbolically portraying the good and evil inherent in human nature. These very forces which determined human behaviour become the writer’s subject. Narayan has consciously made use of myth in the novel. The use of myth in the novel contributes to state what is happening in the locale of Malgudi in a better way.
