About this listen

A young girl was forced to marry a widower of her father's age, who has three sons from his former wife. The plot unfolds to reveal her husband’s suspicion of a relationship between her and his eldest stepson, a suspicion that leads to the death of many family members and destroys the family.

Please note: This audiobook is in Hindi.

Premchand was always in the context of a chapter in Hindi literature in school. This is my second Premchand narrated by Sameer Goswami and my mind is already wondering what next. I started Nirmala, right after completing Godaan. Such is the magic of Premchand- Goswami cocktail. I must add here that I wouldn't be able to read a page of Hindi fluently so an audiobook is my only go to for any book not in English, i.e. Bangla and Hindi.

The context of human relationships in a non Tech era, perhaps 80 odd years ago, feels fresh and direct as compared to our self-absorbed and self-obsessed world where, each of us has a tech bubble around ourselves. Its not as wide in its setting like Godaan, but limited to what happens to Nirmala after her father's untimely demise. It's not a book I would read again but one that I will remember.

What an amazing book by Munshi Premchand. We dive deep into each character’s inner tribulations. Although it’s written in a different era, it is still as relevant as any time.
