Mayyazhippuzhayude Theerangalil


"On the Banks of Mayyazhipuzha" is not just a love story of Dasan and Chandrika, but a journey into many souls that the novel traverses from beginning to end. It always happens that the reader becomes a character in a novel. But what if the reader changes with each character who comes and goes? I experienced such a situation in the novel.

Every character in Mayyazhi lives according to the subjugation and superstitions that have been going on for ages. From David Saiv, to Leslie Saiv, Missy, Gaston Saiv, Dasan, Chandrika, Bharatan, Damu Writer, Kausu, Girija, Achu, Pappan, Vasuti, Malayan Kuramban, Kurambiamma who is the owner of many legends and baby stories waiting for the ship to fly to Parans, above all “The breath in my chest is my breath”. "Happiness", said Master Kunjananthan, the stories of uncountable souls can be seen in Mayyazhi, where the reader changes with each of them. Finally, the reader is drawn to the spirits flying around the silver stone. Reading for me was also a time traveling to the last century.
