The Man-Eater Of Malgudi is a story of a South Indian printer baptized Nataraj, who dwells in his ancestral house; in the fictitious hamlet, Malgudi. He enjoys his living with his bosom friend circle, such as a poet, a journalist and his employee, Shastri. Their lives are provoked by the astound and deliberate entry of an authoritarian taxidermist. They feel that their solitude and seclusion are sabotaged when Vasu, the taxidermist starts living with them by renting a roof on attic. And thus this give birth to a great story and many hilarious anecdotes.
The Man Eater Of Malgudi with 240 pages was published in 1961. I love reading R.K.Narayan’s efforts. Hilarity is maintained all along the book and the same will compel you leafing. But if someone ask me to vote for R.K. Narayan’s best two books, I’ll vote in favour of “The Bachelor Of Arts” and “Swami And Friends”. If you want to read Narayan, I’ll ask you to read these two books first

The Man eater of Malgudi was written by Mr. R K Narayan. This book, well very much like his other works, is an undoubtedly fabulous work of literature. Like a song composing, he just plays with the words and the form a tune in this book. You would get his rhythm while you read it.
You don't go through the book, you will flow with it and get involved into the story. The story is based in a South Indian town called Malgudi, which he has chosen for most of his literature works. This story is about Nataraj, the hero of the story who earns his living as a printer in the little world of Malgudi. He enjoys his living with his friend circle, such as a poet, a journalist and his employee, named Shastri. Their lives are provoked by the astound and deliberate entry of an authoritarian ttaxidermist and thus this give birth to a great, amusing and an interesting story.
