What a wonderful novella this is! Full of descriptions of #Kerala's natural world. It is somewhat edifying, possibly even condescending (it was written in 1951 and things have moved on since then), but counterbalanced by humour and the type of characters we love to hate.
Originally translated from Malayalam for UNESCO's collection of representative literary works

Not book rated. However this trip to Wayanad, Kerala was refreshing.
Reading @vrothbooks while traveling back home from my beautiful native #Kerala.

pickSunset at Cherai beach. I read a bit of my book just so I have a picture to post. Small unnecessary integrities of a reader!
Anne Enright is great. I loved the first few essays of early motherhood. I can see myself leafing through this book again should I have another child because topical reading.
