BENYAMIN'S REVIEW

ACCOLADES FROM A NOVELIST

Novelist Benyamin has reviewed my novel,PAPASNANAM in the current issue of MADHYAMAM weekly.

He has pointed out that I had disappeared from creative writing 15 years ago.In fact,I had written two stories after that:VEYILIL NILKARUTHU in VAYANA edited by S Sunder Das and ITTAPRACHI in GRANTHALOKAM two months back.A book on the Communist history,NAKSHATHRAVUM CHUTTIKAYUM was published in between.

Two books are on the pipe line:RASHTREEYA CJ,political biography of C J Thomas and KLAVU PIDICHA KAPATYAM,an expose' of SWADESABHIMANI Ramakrishna Pillai,with a foreword by M K Sanoo.
