Saraswatichandra (pronounced [sʌrʌsvʌtɪtʃʌndr] ) is a Gujarati novel by Govardhanram Madhavaram Tripathi, an author of late nineteenth century from Gujarat, India. Set in 19th-century India, It is acclaimed as one of the masterpiece of Gujarati literature.[1] Though the novel was published in four parts, each part has a distinct thematic content, its own cast of characters and independent beginnings and ends. It was adapted into several plays, radio plays, films and TV series. It was well received by the number of critics, and was translated into several Indian languages, along with English. However, Suresh Joshi, a strong proponent of formalism theory, criticized the novel for its structural failure.
