Focusing on R.K. Narayan's fiction, this study reevaluates his role in Indian literature by analyzing all his novels in depth. It challenges the perception of Narayan as merely a chronicler of "authentic" Indianness, emphasizing the significance of his South Indian cultural context and its interplay with non-Indian influences. Additionally, the impact of his writing for international audiences on works like Swami and Friends, The Guide, and The Man-Eater of Malgudi is also explored, providing a nuanced understanding of his literary contributions.
