Abstract

Indian literature in English translation delineates the exploration of Indian societal formula, sympathetic outlet of women, traditional customs as well as propitious culture. It carries away the enchanted addictions toward spiritualistic ideas. Bharathi Dave, the author of Henceforth, unconsciously presents the basic cultural pattern of India which views spiritualism as the ultimate go—through of life. Aalok’s, the protagonist, search for worldly peace is quite an exciting search for Eternal Peace, which cannot be achieved with ease.
