Why did we spend a whole two chapters on incredibly shallow and annoying characters?? I'd rather read more about Hori than those rich pricks (except Mirza Khurshid cause he was fun lol).

This is starting to get kinda fun ngl

"इसीलिए कि मैं समझता हूँ, मुक्त भोग आत्मा के विकास में बाधक नहीं होता। विवाह तो आत्मा को और जीवन को पिंजरे में बंद कर देता है।"

Bro just wants to sleep with multiple women and acts like it's some deep philosophical thought. I swear, men...

Of course, Premchand's introduction of the 'modern woman' Miss Malati describes her as a seductress and a pleasure-loving woman. Of course it does.

"हम अपने असामियों को लूटने के लिए मजबूर है।" Did...did he really just say that he's forced to plunder his tenants??? Umm, no you're not??? You could just...not make them pay huge amounts of rent to maintain your rich lifestyle?

Man, this character रायसाहब pisses me off.

So much relevant social commentary in this novel. Can't believe it was written in 1936.

Reading a novel in hindi after 6 years is definitely gonna be something
