Publisher's Synopsis
This novel was an experimental work that caused a break in the form that Tamil novels were stuck with. Written by legendary Tamil writer Ashokamitran, the novel is a collection of individual narratives on the background of Emergency. From the common time period of Emergency, the narratives move past that and paint detailed images of a philosophical search, meaning of life and present us with different answers. In Ashokamitran's magic, the time period of the novel, also reflects the reader's present.
