The Dark Room

Just finished reading this novel ‘The Dark Room’ by R. K. Narayan. A simple story it is, however captures the different aspects of a housewife, right from being a good daughter, loving wife, responsible mother, and above all a self-esteemed woman. Unbelievably set in pre-independence era, the essence of the novel makes sense even to this day.

I need to look if any part of this novel was picturized for the TV series ‘Malgudi Days’.

It’s otherwise been a weak day for me, with me feeling not-so-healthy in the morning, but better off now though!
