About the Book
Manothidam, originally published in Gujarati in 1947 as Manavini Bhavai, is a modern classic. Set against the rural backdrop of Gujarat, it presents a fictionalized account of the great famine of 1990 that devastated the region. Written in a simple and direct style, the narrative avoids conventional artifice while capturing the hardships and tragic lives of Indian village farmers. It also tells a tender love story between Kalu and Raju. The translation preserves the essential simplicity, rustic flavor, and spirit of the original, making it accessible to a wider readership while retaining its cultural essence.
