It has been many years since he fled his home and village, and nobody remembers the sensational success of his first novel, set in the time of the Malabar Rebellion of 1921, but he finds it hard to accept the utter lack of interest in his announcement or the reason for it. Until young Paru, rookie journalist for the local daily, turns up on his doorstep, despatched by her editor to unearth what she can of his story.\u003cbr\u003e\nWhat happened to drive Unnikrishnan away from his family and friends? What was he doing in those missing decades? And how is he going to meet his end—will he kill himself, and if so, how and why? These are the questions Paru puts to him over and over again, pleading, cajoling, threatening, but it will take a lot more to get the stubborn old man to reveal the truth. If he ever will.\u003cbr\u003e\nA remarkable story about human suffering and transformation, this new novel by the award-winning writer–translator duo will have you questioning the most fundamental aspects of life—and death.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAbout the Author\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nM.
