Anchuvannam Theru - Thoppil Mohamed Meeran - Bog

Anjuvannam Theru is a novel by acclaimed Tamil writer Thoppil Mohammed Meeran. It is a classic, where the author is intimate enough to the events, but still stays away at a safe distance as a storyteller. It has characters closer to real life, stuck between the orthodoxy and modernity of religious ideas. The tragedy is that they have no say over which way their life flows. They just run along with it, stabbed to death and are dragged to sky and heaven.
