Book review: Raag Darbari (राग दरबारी) by Shrilal Shukla

this book is one where each line is laced with satire and witty humor bringing smile to your face..you would read and smile slowly being bowled over by the wit..one would wonder as to whether the book was set in 1960s or recent times..the mentality of people, the agri scene in village, not much has changed..it was my first hindi book reading after a long long time and loved every word of it..highly recommended..(warning: some words are of pure hindi origin and one won't know meaning of same though would easily get the context from the sentences)
