Which novel by Narayan is considered the best?

One of Narayan's highly regarded novels is 'The Guide'. It tells a complex story of Raju, who goes through various transformations in his life, from a tour guide to a spiritual figure. The characters are well - drawn and the exploration of human nature, ambition, and redemption makes it a great read.

It could be 'The Handmaid's Tale'. It has become extremely relevant in recent years, especially with the rise of certain political and social trends. It shows a very dark future for women in particular, and how a society can turn against a whole group of people. It's a powerful and disturbing look at a possible dystopia.

I would say that 'The Legend of Zorro' novel is a top choice. It portrays Zorro as a timeless hero. The story is full of his heroic deeds, his ability to inspire the common people, and his constant struggle against injustice. The way the author has written about Zorro's dual identity - the nobleman by day and the masked avenger by night - is really engaging.

I think 'A Tale of Two Cities' is a strong contender for the best Dickens novel. It's set against the backdrop of the French Revolution. The story of Sydney Carton's sacrifice is truly moving. Dickens' descriptions of the chaos and upheaval during that time are masterful, and it also delves into themes of resurrection and redemption.

Some might consider 'Death in the Andes' as the best. It combines elements of mystery, politics, and cultural exploration. The story set in the Andes mountains is full of suspense and thought - provoking ideas.

I would say 'The A.B.C. Murders'. This novel showcases Poirot's intelligence in a unique way. He has to deal with a serial killer who seems to be following an alphabetical pattern. It's a race against time for Poirot to stop the killer before more murders occur. The plot is fast - paced and keeps you on the edge of your seat.

Some might argue that 'The Remains of the Day' is the best. It's a very deep exploration of a character's psyche. The writing is so elegant that it draws you into the butler's world completely, making you feel his regrets and longings.

The notion of the 'best' novel is subjective. Different novels excel in various aspects - some for their profound themes, others for their compelling characters or beautiful prose. So, it varies from person to person.
