Biographical Attributes in Mulk Raj Anand's Novels

Abstract

Mulk Raj Anand is undoubtedly among the top Indian authors of English-language novels. Because he rejects wealth, luxury, and money, he is a proletarian humanist. He is superior to all other great authors. Art, in his opinion, is beneficial to life. We simply use "Arts for Arts Sake" as an escape from the difficult aspects of life. He is reluctant to go. He is aware of the significance of bringing about change and fostering cooperation among the poorest members of a community, including the coolies and peasants. Anand appears to be battling for the freedom, equality, and justice of the impoverished and the untouchables. After India became a colony and subsequently an independent nation, he advocated for the fundamental rights and demands of its citizens in the emerging civil society. Of all the fundamental rights, he thought the right to be treated with respect was the most crucial. The primary character, Bakha, wanted to rebel, but he was too scared of his caste to express it aloud. Known for writing on the lives of those from lower castes in traditional Indian society, this author was Indian and wrote in English. Untouchable, his debut novel, was published in 1935 and offers a terrifying glimpse into the lives of India's untouchable caste, who were disregarded at the time.

Mulk Raj Anand, freedom, the Untouchables, justice, and fairness are a few terms that spring to mind.
