Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Muna Madan

Muna Madan is a short but epic love story based on the 18th century. It is a tragic story, but one you will absolutely love it. This book was written by late Laxmi Prasad Devkota. This book is known to be his greatest creation and is loved by many people in Nepal. It was officially published around 1939 and is one of the best selling Nepali novels of all time even after 70 years after it was published.

The story is about two fictional characters Muna and Madan. The epic tragic-love story follows Madan, who goes to a foreign land in search of work leaving behind his old mother and beloved wife. It is about how Madan was betrayed by his friends when he needed the most. And about the repercussions of the fake news of his death. It also talks about the caste system (difference in lower and upper castes) and the practice about the 'untouchable' castes.
