????? [Godaan] - Premchand is the most famous Hindi novelist and Godaan is Premchands most celebrated novel. Economic and social conflict in a north Indian village are brilliantly captured in the story of Hori, a poor farmer and his familys struggle for survival and self-respect. Hori does everything he can to fulfill his lifes desire: to own a cow, the peasants measure of wealth and well-being. Like many Hindus of his time, he believes that making the gift of a cow to a Brahman before he dies will help him achieve salvation. An engaging introduction to India before Independence, Godaan is at once village ethnography, moving human document and insightful colonial history.
