Premchand in World Languages is written by M. Asaduddin and published by Routledge. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1317205723 (ISBN 10) and 9781317205722 (ISBN 13).

This volume explores the reception of Premchand’s works and his influence in the perception of India among Western cultures, especially Russian, German, French, Spanish and English. The essays in the collection also take a critical look at multiple translations of the same work (and examine how each new translation expands the work’s textuality and annexes new readership for the author) as well as representations of celluloid adaptations of Premchand’s works. An important intervention in the field of translation studies, this book will interest scholars and researchers of comparative literature, cultural studies and film studies.
