description: The present book primarily aims at tracing influences central to both Ngugi and Anand, especially of Marx, Gandhi and Fanon in the constructions of their fictional worlds. Also, an attempt has been made here to examine and present a comparative study of language of the fiction which these two great novelists have employed in rendering the chosen fictional world. Besides novels, their non-fictional writings have also been taken into account. The interviews with Ngugi and Anand as well as Anand s letters have been appended in the book which are sufficient enough to give a glimpse of the amazing concurrence that they display in their approaches to the problems of life and literature. It has been aptly remarked on the contents of the present "... your study shows acute perceptiveness of motive forces behind my novels and Ngugi wa Thiong'o of Kenya...your study will be valuable for the new young students."
