The Mistress  (English, Paperback, Rm Shanmugam Chettiar)

“The verses of Shanmugam are sometimes a feast in Romanticism. They also remind a reader of the love sonnets sung by the sonneteers of the Elizabethan age as Sir Thomas Wyatt, William Shakespeare, and Edmund Spenser… Most poems of Shanmugam draw strength from philosophy and they sound native in thought and expression. They stand far away from obscurity, hard-to-crack allusions, and other enigmatic symbols.”
