R. K. Narayan in his short story “A Horse and Two Goats” has addressed many important social issues through the use ofhumour, instead of seriousness.
The title of the story draws attention. By the title “A Horse and Two Goats”, it seems like the horse was also a pet of Muni just like the two goats. But actually it was a clay horse statue. It didn’t even belong to Muni. But due to the miscommunication, it happened so that the American bought the horse statue from Muni thinking him to be the owner. So, the horse statue served Muni more than his goats. Again, it was the horse statue which the man wanted to buy, but Muni thought that he was selling his goats. So the most amusing part of the story lies there in the confusion between the horse and the goats. So, from both the angles the title serves the purpose well.
