Soft cover. Condizione: New. Ten powerful stories that capture the essence of Tamil society through the prism of the personal and the political. A stranger in a village is befriended by an itinerant salesman who shares his meal with him—only to be repaid in an unexpected manner. The opening story in this collection, 'Thambi', sets the tone for the stories that follow, where the characters remain nameless for the most part, yet give voice to the internal struggles of men and women caught in an increasingly divisive society where questions of trust, love, loss and loneliness have a profound effect on their lives. In 'Un-timely', a young girl dies a mysterious death, and is reunited with the man who loves her—but just for a day. In the titular story, 'An Ocean in a Well', a man's search for his mother draws him to the ocean, but leads him to a well where he hears her voice, and sees the waves rising from within, beckoning him. 'Fact finding' and 'A Death and Some More' portray a bleak picture of persistent caste-based violence in a modern world and the ineffectiveness of the political system. And in stories like 'Zha, The Unique Letter', 'The Word' and 'A Theory Concerning Theft', Ravikumar satirises the contemporary ideological and intellectual scene of Tamil Nadu, exposing the follies of a culture in transition. Together, these diverse stories from the pen of a political activist and prolific writer, brilliantly explore themes ranging from the psychological struggles of individuals, to the ideological and societal conflicts of the Tamil people.…

'Francis Itty Cora stirred up the reading public in Kerala for its thematic audacity, play of ideas and racy pulp rendering.' - Outlook When ex-US Marine Xavier Itty Cora realizes that the secret to resolving his personal troubles lies in the story of his ancestor, the scandalous, cunning pepper merchant Francis Itty Cora, he becomes obsessed with unearthing the truth. As Xavier begins to turn the pages of history with the help of Kochi-based sensual scholars and their friends and lovers, an intricate tale shrouded in secrecy and myths is unveiled. He discovers a man who is as befuddling as he is bedazzling: a mathematical genius, a figure revered by a mysterious cult and a person of rampant sexual desires. Set in present-day Kerala, war-torn Iraq, ancient Alexandria and Renaissance Florence, TD Ramakrishnan's Francis Itty Cora, a classic in Malayalam literature, is a provocative reimagining of history. With its complex plot twists and fascinating characters, this remarkable translation is just as unputdownable and unforgettable as the original.…

Softcover. Condizione: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. Francis Itty Cora, a 15th-century pepper merchant from Kerala, is a larger-than-life figure - founder of a mysterious secret cult, a key figure in the Italian Renaissance, responsible for setting up secret Hypatian schools of mathematics, a man of legendary sexual prowess, and much more. The author deftly weaves real-life historical and contemporary events and characters into an intriguing plot that moves back and forth between the distant and not-so-distant past and the present, traversing continents in the process. At one level a racy thriller with the stock-in-trade surprise denouement, Francis Itty Cora is a more layered book that at a deeper level contests established history to offer provocative alternative readings and challenges taboos of every kind - social, sexual, emotional, and ethical. The original Malayalam version of Francis Itty Cora has achieved cult status in Kerala. It has received several best novel awards, gone into eight editions, and is being made into a film. Its Tamil translation is shortly to be published.…
