Premchand (1880-1936) was the pen name of Dhanpat Rai
Srivastava, a great Hindi short-story writer and novelist. He was
born in a village near Banaras (Varanasi) and his childhood and
youth were marked by extreme poverty and domestic problems.
He disregarded all social taboos and married Shivrani Devi, a child
widow. He gave up his government job in 1920 when Gandhi
launched the Non-Cooperation Movement and immersed
himself in political and literary writings instead. Premchand had a
progressive outlook and brought a new sense of social awareness
to fiction. He is considered one of the outstanding short story
writers of world literature, with more than three hundred short
stories in Hindi and Urdu to his credit. His literary writings reflect
the harsh life of the Indian peasant with empathy and insight.
The novels Vardaan, Nirmala, Gaban, Rangabhumi, and Godaan
are some of his well-known works.
'The Child' is a story narrated by the employer of a Brahmin
servant named Gangu. Despite being warned by his employer
and others, Gangu marries a widow, Gomti. The story reveals
Gangu's compassion, courage, and acceptance of human nature
and shows the reader a way of casting aside the pressures that
society exerts on us.​
