Ep 19: The City and the Village

from Bookasur · host P.S. Nissim

We had World Translation Day last week. So, this time we pick up two books, both translated, both from Malayalam, both literary fiction, both by the same publishing house, published within a couple of months of each other, and talk about how different they are. Hey, if there’s so much variety just between these two, think of what other wonders are to be found on the bookshelves of Indian literature! This is episode #19 of Bookasur, talking about Don Camillo, the difference between cocks and roosters, the Emergency, and longing for home. Books featured: Delhi: A Soliloquy, by M. Mukundan, published by Eka Westland The Cock is the Culprit, by Unni R., published by Eka Westland. -------- Published 8th October 2020.
