Abstract
Modernism celebrates the inner strength of an individual. In R. K. Narayan's fictional world in the imaginary town of Malgudi, the Indian microcosm is shown to have a bipolar existence where traditional age old beliefs and values are finely blended with modernism of the West. The old order changes leaving place for the new. The tussle between the "Tradition" and " Modernism " is what gives R. K. Narayan's writings gain a universal appeal.
