"Whoaa so this novel is autobiographical, according to Claude AI. I got suspicious upon reading Narayan’s full name being mentioned somewhere in the first story of The Grandmother’s Tale.
I wonder if it’s only the first story that is autobiographical, since the latter stories turn out to be unrelated to Narayan’s family." — Oct 18, 2025 06:42PM
