Review: The book The vendor of Sweets is a great story of a simple man. The story revolves around a widower and how he raises his only son. The unconditional love of a father to his selfish son has been portrayed well.. I would love recommending this to people who like to read stories life of older generations in India.
Review: I had bought this book to familiarize myself more with Narayan's writing style and contribution to Anglo-Indian literature.
