Books I read recently

JIn past one week I had read 4 books…. I am amazed at myself

The first book which I finished was பேரறிஞர் அண்ணாவின் சிறுகதை தொகுப்புகள் (Peraringar Annavin chirugathai thogupugal )

This book was marvelous. The stories were mind blowing and Tamil words usages were extraordinary.

The second book which I finished was களப்பிரர் ஆட்சியில் தமிழகம்(Kalapirar aatchiyil thamizhagam)

This book denies the fact that Kalpirar period at Tamil nadu was called as “Dark period” in Tamil nadu history. It was only during this period Buddhism and Jainism touched their peak and Hinduism had a fall. Kalapirar were basically kannadigas who ruled tamil nadu for 300 years. Just because Hinduism had its fall during this period it was made as dark period in the history of Tamilnadu. Kalapirars were mainly Jains and also Buddhists were there. Some followed Hinduism too. Also, it says in brief about Srilanka History which is full of cunningness and betrayal. Also, it says that Karnool and Kadapai ( I think the names are right )districts of Andhra Pradesh were ruled by chola Kings who escaped from Kalapirar . They made Telugu as their ruling language. This was found in the archeological evidences. It had been written that they were descendants of Karigala Chozhan.


The third book which I read was 3 mistakes by chetan Bhagat.

This was wonderful story and it explained a young man’s suicide attempt due to the three mistakes in his life. Business, friends, Religion. It also explains the earthquake of Gujarat and the communal clashes that took place between the Hindus and Muslims at Gujarat and how these things had an impact on the young man Govind Patel.


The fourth book which I completed was Darwinism Life history and brief note of his book Origin of species

This book explains the evolution of man and early life of Charles Darwin how he had made his theory Survival of fittest fit and what problems he faced in England when he released his book , how he overcome that. This book is in Tamil.

Hope, to come up with brief reviews of still more books as I finish them reading. Books are indeed good friends and great Jcompanions.
