Guru Prasad Mainali

Guru Prasad Mainali was born in 1900 in Kanpur, in the Kavrepalanchok district, into a Brahmin family of modest means. He entered the civil service to earn a living, became a judge and was transferred from one district court to another, which gave him close knowledge of people from all over the country. Influenced by Munshi Premchand, a great Hindi-language short-story writer, he wrote only eleven short stories, most of them published between 1935 and 1938 in the monthly Sharada. He died in 1971.
