“Book Descriptions: Weekly publications of The Banner is entirely due to two dedicated Malgudi inhabitants: Srinivas edits the newspaper, while Mr. Sampath prints it. They work night & day to satisfy the increasing demands of their clamoring public. In rare moments of relaxation, Srinivas occupies his mind puzzling over the futility of human existence, while Mr. Sampath good-naturedly shoulders all the financial burdens. Without warning, The Banner suddenly folds. Never a character to be foiled for long, Mr. Sampath becomes involved with Sunrise Productions & ropes in Srinivas to write the film scripts. Unfortunately the glamorous life goes to Mr. Sampath's head & chaos ensues. At times amusing, unfailingly perspicacious, R.K.Narayan has written a story of great distinction & charm.” DRIVE
