Description

Kanthapura has been described as the ‘most satisfying of modern Indian novels’. It is the story of how Gandhi’s struggle for independence from the British came to a typical village, Kanthapura, in southern India.

The novel is a landmark in the history of Indian fiction in English, as it points to a definite stage in the formation of an Indian style of writing in English. This edition includes an Introduction and extensive notes.
