Manohar Malgonkar is a writer who has not yet received full critical attention as a significant Indo-English novelist. His major novels and short stories taken together reveal him as a writer keenly interested in Indian social life. An attempt has been made in this book to probe into the treatment of human relationships in Malgonkar’s fiction, and to trace out the psychological and sociological factors that form the basis of these relationships. The historical and sociological orientation of Indo-English fiction makes such a study relevant. It takes a glance at the world of his shorter fiction also. The study, it is hoped, will be of interest to the students of Indo-English fiction, to the researchers, and to the common reader. Equally, it may be of interest to the students of history and sociology, and even of psychology because they will find some of the movements and theories, which are exemplified in terms of the novel, discussed in the study.
