The Bachelor of Arts - R. K. Narayan (1937)

The book does not need a review. But it's interesting still for me to write a couple of lines on it. A simple story written in 1937 but quite modern in its approach. The outline of the story is already stated in the Wikipedia link. What made this book unputdownable was the classic R.K.Narayan story telling. This is a book with a balanced dose of humour, emotions of an adoloscent, parental concerns and a man's confusion on choosing the right approach to his career and life.

Overall an interesting read.
