Description:

In a few short stories on this theme, Premcand (1880-1936) as the first Hindi writer conveyed a certain warning to the reader that though West offers personal freedom of choice, it takes more away than it gives. In the literature of last several decades, Premcand’s main motifs related to the subject appear again and again, modified with the course of time and elaborated minutely. Basically, contemporary writers, concerned with the psychological aspect of the matter, reach the same conclusion as Premcand.
