Timeless Malgudi brings together a selection of the best and the most enduring of R.K. Narayan's fiction and non-fiction. The Guide examines, with and irony, how a man becomes a goodman. The story `A Horse and Two Goats' describes an attempt at cross - cultural communication which goes haywire, with hilarious consequences. The excerpt from My Days, Narayan's autobiography, paints apoignant picture of the author's childhood while the Misguided "Guide" is a cynical, sharply written chronicle of the making of the film Guide, based on his novel. Also included in this volume are excerpts from the travelogue My Dateless Diary, and a brilliant retelling of the Tamil epic Silappadikaram. Catering both to Narayan aficionados and to readers who have not yet been introduced to his work, Timeless Malgudi is as much a showcase of Narayan's writing as it is a celebration of Malgudi, the town which time does not touch.
