Abstract:
Abstract: Many Indian writers have tried their hands in English to explore Indian themes with Indian sensibility. Mulk Raj Anand occupies an important place among such writers. He explored various themes through various forms- his long fiction as well as short fiction. As a short story writer, he occupies a special place in the Indian writings in English. In his short stories, he has dealt with child characters with great skill. The way he depicts these children is marvelous. Through the depiction of child characters, Anand is successful in bringing various shades of child psychology to the fore. At the same time, he also deals with the exploitation of children in the hands of so called sophisticated Indian society. Various malpractices prevalent in the Indian society have been dealt with through the depiction of these child characters. It is not a matter of depiction simply, but it leaves a message behind, an indelible impression. An effort has been made to decode this message in the upcoming full write up. Keywords: Children, story, psychology, character, struggle, depiction, lot.
