Mostly there is not much of a difference just a few changes in the sequence. I am sure that this video will make you smile and remind you of your childhood and school days. The fun we had, our friends, the way we made friends, the exam fear, the eagerly awaited vacations, our kind principal, our strict but loving teachers, our punishments everything. It is a great book to have in your collection
More details about the book
The first book of R.K. Narayan’s famous trilogy, ‘Swami and Friends’ happens to be Narayan’s first published book as well. It was published in 1935 with a lot of motivation and help from Graham Greene, a famous novelist. The setting is British India, in a fictional town named Malgudi. Swami is a ten-year-old boy who studies at a mission school.
He lives with his parents, younger brother, and grandmother. He has a set of friends in two schools that he gets removed from. Events lead Swami to leave his house and go on a run. He is drawn heavily towards the unrest that is prevalent everywhere in India, but he fails to understand the cause. What happens with Swami? Will he be able to get back home safely? To know the answer, read this book.
Narayan successfully creates a child’s perspective on the adult world. What problems do kids face? What do they think of the world they live in? These are the kind of questions you might find answers to. Graham Greene in his review of the book thanked Narayan for making him feel like an Indian through his words. This edition has been published by Indian Thought Publication.
Swami and Friends is a true portrayal of the complexities faced by the Indian middle class. Readers get a feeling of common humanity among the people of this country. You can feel that soul of India is one through this book. It is a funny and interesting tale of Swami and his adventures. Other characters are Swami’s friends, his family, and people from his town, and people he meets while on these adventures.
Readers get to see the world through the eyes of a ten-year-old boy. Readers get to see his boyhood. The priorities and problems that kids find very important can sometimes look inappropriate as an adult, but for kids, that is their world. Narayan has captured the pre-independence world of Malgudi.
