    <body><![CDATA[As always with Narayan, the writing is a joy to read. The prose flows smoothly, the descriptions come to life and dialogue reads as true.

Narayan seems primarily concerned with characterization and exploring everyday life, as opposed to building a strong plot. The novel is told from the eponymous English teacher, Krishna's, perspective. After several years of marriage, hi...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5234558">more...</a>]]></body>
