The novel 'Madhopur Ka Ghar' is the story of three generations of a family spread through about 100 years. With the background of social change in Bihar, it is also a living document of the unusual events of history and their solutions. 'Madhopur Ka Ghar' is a bold yet deeply introspective novel, highly relevant and realistic in terms of its originality, beautiful commentary, believable plot, characterization, language style and craft. 

This book is published by Rajkamal Prakashan.  

After the release, Tripurari Sharan, in an exclusive conversation with Dynamite News, said that Madhopur has been used as a metaphor in the title of 'Madhopur Ka Ghar'. The novel carries story of many villages with almost similar journey.

Tripurari Sharan further said, there is a reference of a house in the novel. We all talk about the house but sometimes when we sit alone and deliberate on the real meaning of 'home', we often go into deep thinking. This novel is written with these two metaphors of 'house' in mind.

The release of 'Madhopur Ka Ghar' followed a vibrant discussion on the plot of the story.
