Resilience and Struggle of Life Karnali Blues by Buddhi Sagar
(2026) Rai, Tanka Bahadur; Arvind Dahal
The current study examines the themes of economic hardship, poverty, and class struggle in Buddhisagar’s Karnali Blues against the socio-economic backdrop of rural Nepal. The novel reveals the socio-economic condition of rural areas, especially in the Karnali backdrop. It is a great tragedy to tell a story in which the narrator and the proletariat struggle for survival, as this reflects marginalisation, neglect, and deprivation in terms of infrastructure development. The book captures not just the shortage of resources and the weight of social inequalities but also human resilience and that of groups in responding to adversity. Drawing from case studies such as endless queues waiting for basic commodities, disrupted livelihoods, and the impact of civil war, this study isolates how Karnali Blues functions both as the author’s memoir and a socio-political critique. This novel takes for granted the hierarchy of how rural people survive in the Karnali region. The writer argues through Nepali literature. To sum up, the research aims to unwrap the story to the public that the novelist Buddhisagar not only exposes the structural injustices but also upholds human survival and family ties in hard times. Keywords: Class conflict, economic deprivation, Karnali Blues, Nepali literature, poverty, resilience, rural marginalization, socio-political critique, Buddhisagar.
