Synopsis बरगद के पेड़ तले भारत के श्रेष्ठ कहानीकार आर.के. नारायण के प्रिय काल्पनिक शहर, मालगुडी, की अमूल्य धरोहर में एक अनूठे नग की तरह है जिसमें सौदागर, भिखारी, साधु-सन्त, अध्यापक, चरवाहे, ठग जैसे अलग-अलग चरित्रों की दिलचस्प कहानियाँ हंै। कहीं तो है एक विद्रोही नवयुवक जो पैतृक मन्दिर में अपने माता-पिता की ली गई प्रतिज्ञा का पालन करने से साफ इनकार कर देता है, तो वहीं सीधा-सादा दुकानदार एक अजनबी की मनमोहक बातों में आकर दिवालिया हो जाता है, और एक छोटा-सा लड़का अपना साहस दिखाने के लिए रात को अकेले ही चोर को पकड़ दिखाता है। ऐसी ही अट्ठाईस रोचक कहानियाँ हैं बरगद के पेड़ तले में। कहानीकार आर.के. नारायण शब्दों के जादूगर थे जो अपने शब्दों के मायाजाल और जीवन्त चित्राण से पाठकों को मोह लेते हैं। कहानी का विषय कैसा भी हो, पात्रा कितना भी क्रूर क्यों न हो, परिस्थिति कितनी भी विकट क्यों न हो, लेकिन आर.के. नारायण की शालीन कलम हर स्थिति को मानवीय नजरिये से पेश करती है।
