Correct Answer:
C. The English Teacher
Explanation:
The correct answer is The English Teacher. Published in 1945, this semi-autobiographical novel by R.K. Narayan follows the life of Krishna, an English teacher at Albert Mission College in Malgudi. A central figure in the story is his wife, Susila, whose domestic life, tragic battle with typhoid, and subsequent spiritual presence form the emotional core of the narrative. The book was dedicated to Narayan's own wife, Rajam, who also passed away from typhoid, reflecting the deep personal connection between the author's life and the character of Susila.
