Hardcover. Zustand: As New. M. Mukundan has been called the 'Writer of Mayyazhi' and some of his best-known works have as their background, Mayyazhi, that small area in Kerala which is still French at heart. And yet he spent a large part of his life in Delhi and a number of his powerful works are set in that place and speak of its people. Haridwaril Manikal Muzhangunnu came out in 1972 to loud acclaim and louder criticism. It spoke to the alienated youth of the late 1960s and early 1970s; and the criticism was because it seemed to glorify the use of drugs and a way of life that was considered immoral then. With Ramesh and Suja, we travel to ancient Haridwar where the Ganga came to earth, where the marks made by Bhageeratha's chariot wheels can still be seen and Bhima's sweat can still be tasted in the water of the pond dug by him. Ramesh finds himself unable to resist the call of the bells of Haridwar. The other two novellas take us back to Mayyazhi, the small piece of land where time has stood still for decades. Both the stories speak of the man of rectitude face to face with his baser instincts, his natural instincts. Meetheledath Ravunni is led astray by the sight of the girdle that encircles Savitri's slim waist and descends to an animal-like existence. As for Kunhikrishnan Thampuran, the honeyed skin of the oil-miller's wife reduces him finally to an innocence that is child-like, unselfconscious.…

Soft cover. Zustand: New. Mayyazhi (Mahe)a quaint French colony in the middle of Kerala in the 1940s: a melange of shimmering elegance, native myth and legend, where souls are said to hover as dragonflies over the Velliyan Rock in the sea. A wave of nationalism sweeps over the languorous town, igniting the desire for change. As the colonial loyalists clash with the group of dedicated youth determined to free Mayyazhi from the French, Dasan, a promising young man destined for a brilliant career in the French government, finds himself in the thick of the movement. M. Mukundan, one of Kerala's best-known writers of fiction, deftly captures the spirit of a period of transition, evoking a Mayyazhi that is now lost forever. A milestone in India's publishing history, Mayyazhippuzhayude Theerangalil was published in Malayalam in 1974 and went on to become a bestseller and win plaudits in several languages. This edition features the award-winning English translation by Gita Krishnankutty that first appeared in the 1990s. A classic work of fiction, encompassing history and folklore, and beautifully written, On the Banks of the Mayyazhi belongs on the bookshelves of all literature lovers. …
