Gaban is a Hindi novel by Munshi Premchand, written in 1931. Through this novel, he tries to show the falling moral values among lower middle class Indian youth in the era of British India, and to what heights a person can get to, to reach the world of elite class,and maintain the false image as a rich person. It tells the story of Ramanath, a handsome, pleasure seeking, boastful, but a morally weak person, who tries to make his wife Jalpa, happy by gifting her jewelry which he can't really afford to buy via his meager salary, and then gets engulfed in a web of debts, which ultimately forces him to commit embezzlement. It is considered Premchand's best work, after Godaan.

गीतांजलि’ महान् रचनाकार नोबल पुरस्कार विजेता कवींद्र रवींद्रनाथ टैगोर का प्रसिद्ध महाकाव्य है। एक शताब्दी पूर्व जब इसकी रचना हुई; तब भी यह एक महाकाव्य था और एक शताब्दी के बाद भी यह महाकाव्य है तथा आनेवाली शताब्दियों में भी यह एक महाकाव्य ही रहेगा। इस महाकाव्य की उपयुक्तहता तब तक रहेगी जब तक मानव सभ्यता जीवित है। उन्नीसवीं सदी में विश्वप साहित्य के क्षेत्र में भारतीयों की पहचान इस महाकाव्य के माध्यम से हुई। यह महाकाव्य हर भारतीय की अनुभूतियों से अंतरंग रूप से जुड़ा है। यह अपने आप में एक अनूठा महाकाव्य है; जो साधारण व्यक्तिे से लेकर प्रकांड विद्वान् के लिए समान रूप से प्रेरणादायी है। इस काव्य की रचना न किसी विशेष समाज; प्रांत या देश विशेष के लिए है। यह महाकाव्य मानव संस्कृति एवं सभ्यता के लिए सदैव प्रेरणा का स्रोत रहेगा। किसी महाकाव्य का अनुवाद दूसरी भाषा में करना तथा उसी भाषा में उसका शाब्दिक अर्थ मात्र करना काफी नहीं होता। अनुवाद से पूर्व यह आवश्यक है कि उस महाकाव्य में अंतर्निहित भावों को समझकर सम्यक् रूप में उसका मंथन किया जाए। गीतांजलि; जिसका अनुवाद विश्वत की सभी प्रमुख भाषाओं एवं सभी भारतीय भाषाओं में हो चुका है; ऐसे महाकाव्य का फिर से अनुवाद करने का साहस जुटाना अपने आप में अत्यंत प्रशंसनीय कार्य है।
