Vyankatesh Madgulkar (1927–2001) was one of the pioneers of
modernist short fiction (navakatha) as well as ‘rural’
(grameen) fiction in Marathi in the post-World War II era. He wrote
eight novels, two hundred short stories, several plays including
some notable ‘folk plays’ (loknatya), screenplays and dialogues
for more than eighty Marathi films. This book offers a
comprehensive understanding of Vyankatesh Madgulkar’s work by
analysing selections from his major creative fictions and
nonfictions. This is augmented with important writings on him by
his contemporaries, as well as critical writings, commentaries, and
reviews by present-day scholars. It situates Madgulkar in the
context of Marathi literary tradition and Indian literature in
general. Part of the ‘Writer in Context’ series, this book will
be useful for scholars and researchers of Indian literature,
Marathi literature, English literature, comparative literature,
postcolonial studies, cultural studies, global south studies and
translation studies.
