It is the reading of local history and myths of the tiny villages in colonial Malabar in parallel with world history. Please read the below comment of great minds who read it as below: It has a very touching description of Malappuram. The Malabar Rebellion, the arrival of the British are all presented through flash backs and can be read very interestingly. The novel begins by saying that the novelist's mother first gave birth under a tree on a mountain. It is reality, not imagination. That was the time of the Malabar Rebellion. The pregnant woman went to foothills, fearing that village would be attacked if she stayed at home. The novel also explores how the Arabs and Vasco da Gama came here... P.Govinda Pilla - Marxist Philosopher This is history, travelogue and yet a compilation of tales. As he doesn't observe typical traditions or norms, the author doesn't want to put it under any particular genre. So reading becomes a journey, blissful and, at times, adventurous. You may come across the island of the old man of the sea or a roc bird or a whale. Sails set in folk style take wind expertly and find its way across waves. M.T. Vasudevan Nair - Padma Bushan, Jnanpit Awardee, Film Maker, Script Writer, most renowned writer in malayalam language.
