The Second Wife by Premchand Translated from Hindi by David Rubin - Nirmala Author:Premchand Charming and cultivated, Nirmala's only sin is her failure to get a husband who would accept her without a dowry. She is married off to a widower. The realistic dramatization of the family events, set in the milieu of 1920's, is peculiarly Indian, but based on universal human experience, transcending geographical boundaries and barriers of culture.
