One of the best short story collection I have ever read... Perumal Murugan is definitely one of the best writers of our time... Recommend to every book lover around the world...

I love reading short stories. I had been reading Ruskin Bond's novels.I was actually searching for other writers' short story books.Finally came to know about Perumal Murugan while reading The Hindu.The stories are so deep, everything comes alive when you read it.Joy,sorrow, mystery, humour- the writer has put everything.The creativity is incredible.This one you ought to have in your collection.

Ordered this from brushline books.Got " A BRIEF HISTORY OF TIME" by Stephen Hawking.

Excellent.

Description of life in rural communities is very realistic. It was a pleasure to read this book
