Synopsis:

Coolie portrays the picaresque adventures of Munoo, a young boy forced to leave his hill village to fend for himself and discover the world. His journey takes him far from home to various Indian cities, to Bombay and Simla, pursuing various jobs, from working as a rickshaw driver to a factory worker. It is a fight for survival that illuminates, with raw immediacy, the grim fate of the masses in pre-Partition India. Together with Untouchable, Coolie places Mulk Raj Anand among the twentieth century's most important Indian novelists writing in English.
