作者简介

Munshi Premchand, born Dhanpat Rai on July 31, 1880, in Lamhi, near Varanasi, India, was a renowned Indian author of novels and short stories in Hindi and Urdu. He is considered one of the greatest literary figures of modern India.

His writings often reflected the struggles of the common people, particularly women and the marginalized.

Some of his most famous works include novels like "Godan" (The Gift of a Cow), "Sevasadan" (The Abode of Service), and "Karmabhumi" (The Land of Karma), and short story collections like "Kahaaniyan" and "Mansarovar."

Premchand's literary contributions earned him immense recognition and respect. He was a pioneer in adapting Indian themes to Western literary styles, making his works accessible to a wider audience. His legacy continues to inspire and influence writers and readers alike, making him a timeless figure in Indian literature. He passed away on October 8, 1936, in Varanasi.
