About this listen
Allahabad Diary: An Uncommon Tale delves into the struggles of Hindi-medium students aspiring to clear the Civil Services Examination and become IAS officers. Parallel to this narrative is the poignant story of Shanti, a young widow grappling with the pain of her husband’s loss, the loneliness of her son leaving for a foreign land, and the isolation that ensues. Shanti’s journey raises critical questions about today’s society, viewed through the lens of her suffering and resilience.
The novel intricately portrays the moral dilemmas and struggles of Anurag, a character who stops at nothing to achieve his goals—even resorting to deceit. His sole principle is victory, no matter the cost. Alongside, the story sheds light on the Hindi-medium students' challenges in the English-dominated Civil Services arena, reflecting their resolve amidst societal disdain for their native language.
Set against the backdrop of Allahabad (now Prayagraj), the narrative vividly captures its university life, neighborhoods, and the enduring spirit of its students. Rooted in raw emotions, this novel brings alive characters and their heartfelt struggles, making it a compelling portrayal of ambition, perseverance, and the fight for identity.
