There, he tells us the story of Raman, a splendid young painter of sign-boards, a bachelor who glories in his old-fashioned independence, whose work takes him all over Malgudi and requires him to do business with some of the city's most important, as well as its most absurd, tradesmen. Raman is polite and business-like with everyone--but underneath the small talk he conducts a quizzical dialogue with himself about his fellow humans and the meaning of their lives. Enter Daisy--an unlikely name for the ruthless but very attractive young lady who commissions Raman, on behalf of the population clinic she runs, to paint signs advocating two-child families. Together they travel around the neighboring country vilages, where Daisy must propogandize. Raman is appalled by the hard-edged zeal she brings to her work, just as he is enthralled by her beauty and mysterious independence of spirit. They are obviously made for each other. Or are they? In this sardonic, bittersweet tale of love in modern India, R. K. Narayan has created two of fiction's most endearing and unique young lovers, and an unsettling story about India at its best and worst.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***'Rasipuram Krishnaswami Iyer Narayanaswami (10 Oct 1906 - 13 May 2001), better known as R. K. Narayan, was an Indian writer and novelist known for his work set in the fictional South Indian town of Malgudi. He was a leading author of early Indian literature in English along with Mulk Raj Anand and Raja Rao. Narayan's mentor and friend Graham Greene was instrumental in getting publishers for Narayan's first four books including the semi-autobiographical trilogy of "Swami and Friends", "The Bachelor of Arts" and "The English Teacher". The fictional town of Malgudi was first introduced in "Swami and Friends"'.
