Superb

എളുപ്പത്തിൽ വായിച്ച പോകാൻ പറ്റിയ ഒന്നല്ല. ഒരു 50 വര്ഷം പുറകിലേക്കു മനസ്സിനെ കൊണ്ട് പോകാൻ കഴിയുന്നവർക്കേ ഈ ബുക്ക് ഇഷ്ടപ്പെടാൻ സാധ്യത ഉള്ളു. അന്തര്മുഖത്വം ഉള്ള കഥ എന്ന് വിശേഷിപ്പിക്കാം. തുടക്കകാർക് ഇഷ്ടപ്പെടാൻ സാധ്യത ഇല്ല . ഉപയോഗിച്ചിരിക്കുന്ന ഭാഷ പഴഞ്ചനും കടു കട്ടിയുമാണ് ഒപ്പം തമിഴും . തമിഴ് കലർന്ന പാലക്കാടൻ ഭാഷ ആയിരിക്കാമത് . ഒരല്പം ആഴമുള്ള കഥകൾ ഇഷ്ടപെടുന്നവർക് തീർച്ചയായും വാങ്ങാം. ദുഃഖ പര്യവസാനിയാണ്
