Book excerpt: Neela Padmanabhan is well known as a leading short story writer and novelist in Tamil. Very few people, however, know him as a poet. A select band of people knows how he uses poetry to present the pains that the vast majority of the populace endures, to reflict his own anguish at society s imbalances, injustices and iniquities. He laments the fragile structure of modern society, racked by the politics of power that pervades even the field of literature. He derides the double talk that elite indulges in, sneers at the dubious deals that people strike and their vulgar display of wealth and power. His poems, most of them short, carry the decocted wisdom of a poet whose heart is lacerated by the steady erosion of the old value system built on the essence of Indian culture and tradition. The poems, translated from Tamil, secure for Neela Padmanabhan a place of honour amongst the finest poets of our times.

Book excerpt: Generations is an intricate tale, simply told by a master of fiction about a community of Tamil speakers who live on the borders of modern-day Kerala. Set in the 1940s, it is a novel of generational change and conflict, and how the boy Diravi grows up to take charge of his family, which embodies a distinct culture. Diravi’s sister, Nagu’s marriage to Perumal is wrecked when the latter, enraged at his own failings rejects his young wife. Unacceptable in her own family, Nagu continues to endure Perumal’s cruelty till her brother, Diravi decides on an alternative course of action slashing through outdated social customs that discourage any constructive solutions. Amidst the background of language, myth, and ethnic consciousness, we are offered a sensitively drawn profile of the passing of a traditional way of life into modernity and the nostalgia that comes with change.
