My Days

My Days Autobiography – Is the acclaimed memoir (often referred to as an autobiography) of the celebrated Indian author R.K. Narayan, offering a witty and perceptive glimpse into his life and the inspirations behind his famous fictional town of Malgudi. Narayan recounts his childhood spent mostly in his grandmother’s care, filled with the company of pets and an observant nature that would later inform his writing, particularly his first novel Swami and Friends. He describes himself as an indifferent student who found an early passion for reading English writers like Conan Doyle and Wodehouse.
