Village versus city life
If Munshi Premchand takes a peasant from the village to the city, he puts him in great distress. Hori’s son Gobar moves to Lucknow in distress and becomes a worker in a sugar mill. There his healthy son, who was more used to the open spaces of the village, becomes sick in the narrow and dark chamber and dies. There is a strike in the mill and Gobar becomes unemployed. The younger son contracts smallpox. In short, there is a multitude of calamities.
There – in the village – his body did as much work as it wished, his heart remained free. Now, despite there being lesser physical labour, this stormy noise and turmoil loaded him with a sort of burden. There was also the fear of not knowing when he might be reprimanded – this was the predicament of all workers.

Land is the life of a peasant, his ego. Without land, life becomes meaningless. Like the Greek mythological hero, he only gets energy by touching it. The courage to live is born. The field may just be worth one yoke, it no less dear to the peasant than the jugular vein. He finds it insulting to take to hard work and labour by breaking his ties to the land. In Godaan, Hori is entirely indebted. His buffalo is dead, as is the ox. He is barely surviving but is not prepared to abandon farming and when he has to drink this final draught of humiliation, he dies.
