Book Description

The River of Blood (Kuruthippunal) was first published in Tamil in 1975. As a work of art, the novel stands testimony to the multifaceted personality of its author. The novel is based on the Keezhavenmani carnage of 1967 in which 42 Harijans were burnt to death in landlord-peasant clash. To the agrarian problem, tinged with untouchablity, Indira Parthasarthy gives a psychological dimension, which is the unique aspects of the book. Parthasarthy has beautiful highlighted the degradation in the field of politics and the corruption having assumed the way of life.
