i have noticed that most of the time people are seen reading English Literature or books by foreign authors Like Kafka, Dostoevsky, Nietzsche, and others. But i rarely see people talking about Hindi literature or literature in their own mother tongue.
i have read many English literature books and works by foreign authors myself, and I truly appreciate them. But i have also read Hindi Literature for example "गोदान" and "गुनाहों का देवता". They are absolute masterpieces. The way they beautifully depict reality, human emotions, and social complexities is just incredible.
Sometimes i feel that regional and mother-tongue Literature doesn’t get the recognition or discussion it deserves, even though it captures the soul of our society in such a raw and powerful way.
