The main protagonist of the book is a blind man named Jeevan Baral.

Written in the context of the end of the Rana period and the renaissance of democracy in Nepal, the story inside reveals many aspects of the social life of the time.

This stories in the book tell a lot about the psychology and socio-economic condition of people of different classes and levels at that time.

Bikal's stories are a realistic representation of the exploitation, oppression, deceit, hypocrisy, deception, inhumane treatment by the upper classes of the society and their cronies and the life of the lower class people who are forced to endure such activities and behaviors.

Bikal's stories, influenced by Marxist thought, seem to have an artistic progressive tone, not a slogan.
