GHARJAWAI

Common man struggles hard to live a simple life. Many a times his efforts to live make him piteous in others minds. People laugh at him. Many a times man tries to bring consistency in his surrounding for a smooth living which actually gives rise to discrepancy. This also makes a fool out of him. This type of humour always has a tinge of compassion to it. Many a times smart people deceive innocent people for their selfishness unknowingly unexpectedly. A neutral person might enjoy their shrewdness and may even praise them. A smile appears on his lips for a fraction of second. Exaggeration is the soul of humour. Anand Yadavs stories in this collection are a proof to this. His humour does not arise from the language it is mainly related with the daytoday life. All the stories have a humourous meaning. The characters the events their adverse effects all this binds together and creates humour. This humour is then fresh like a morning flower yet throws light on the various mentalities of the people around us.
