ABOUT THE AUTHOR : Born in Ernakulam in 1942, Sethu published his first short story in the leading Malayalam weekly, Mathrubhumi, when he was 25. His oeuvre comprises eighteen novels and twenty collections of short stories. Extensively translated, his most acclaimed novel, Pandavapuram, has been published in seven other languages. Four of his novels including Pandavapuram, have been made into films. Winner of the prestigious Sahitya Akademi Award, he has been conferred the Kerala Sahitya Award twice. He lives in Kadungallor village in Ernakulam district.
Winner of the prestigious Sahitya Akademi Award, Sethu is one of the most widely read writers around India.
BOOK REVIEWS: A Guest for Arundhathi and Other Stories is a sure testament to Sethu's poignant vision and narrative skill. An outstanding Malayalam writer, he carefully builds his characters and situations in the backdrop of mundane everyday life, taking the reader to the very core of our existence and offering him a glimpse of the despair, deceit, pretense, jealousy, rivalry and a sense of futility that cloud our world. What redeems it all is an all-pervasive sense of sanity and deep faith in human goodness. Competently translated, the short stories open the magical vista of Sethu's creativity and poetic imagination to a wider audience. -- Adoor Gopalakrishnan.
