Synopsis
Chandran is a good-natured, popular, rather dreamy student who works hard to pass his exams. Newly graduated, he is unsure how he wants to spend his future. And then, one evening, walking by the river, he sees Malathi, a beautiful young girl dressed in a radiant green sari But the course of love does not run smoothly. Not all is well in Chandran's horoscope and while some customs can be forgotten, others must be strictly observed: customs that temporarily cause Chandran to turn his back on the legendary Malgudi altogether.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Es ist nicht zuviel gesagt, wenn man Narayan mit Tschechow vergleicht', schrieb die New York Times über den großen indischen Erzähler R. K. Narayan, den John Updike als den 'besten indischen Romanschriftsteller in englischer Sprache' bezeichnete.Die Kleinstadt Malgudi, Schauplatz aller Erzählungen und Romane Narayans, ist die Heimat des jungen Brahmanen Chandran. Mit seinem Markt, dem Tempel, dem Flußufer, den Kaffeehäusern und dem einzigen Kino ist das fiktive Malgudi der Inbegriff südindischen Lebens und zugleich der Mikrokosmos, in dem der Reifeprozeß des jungen Mannes seinen Anfang nimmt. Der Geschichtsstudent Chandran bereitet sich auf das Examen vor. Doch als er verschiedene, einander auch noch widersprechende Aufträge erhält, gerät sein Zeitplan gründlich durcheinander. Nach dem mit Mühe bestandenen Examen geschieht etwas, das ihn aus seinem beschaulichen Leben herausreißt: Er verliebt sich leidenschaftlich in die junge Malathi. Doch deren Vater weist ihn zurück, da die nach brahmanischer Tradition erstellten Horoskope der beiden nicht harmonieren. Chandran ist verzweifelt und verläßt Elternhaus und Stadt, um als Bettelmönch durch Indien zu ziehen. Nach acht Monaten aber nimmt Chandran einen ganz anderen Weg. Seller Inventory # 9780099282242
