Good readGood to read after reading "Sivakamiyin Sabatham" and "Parthiban Kanavu". Its very excited to know about Chozhar kingdom and their great deedsPoonis Beloved is an English translation of well-known Tamil author Kalki R Krishnanmurthys Pooniyin Selvan. The English translation is done by Sumeetha Manikandan. Though I havent read the original work or any of Sumeethas previous works, still I must say this is the best translated work I have ever read.

A legendary piece of literature, Ponnis Beloved is Part One of five parts of the English translation of Kalki Krishnamurthys Tamil Classic Ponniyin Selvan. It has as its protagonist Vandiya Devan a young soldier who belongs to the brave warrior race of Vanars. He is on a secret mission for the Crown Prince of the Chola Kingdom.

While the book has lot of political angles, many different plots in the story are nicely intermingled and described.The author has made good attempt to
I started learning Tamil several years ago and the question that I was invariably asked was, Why do you want to learn Tamil? What is your goal? Well, I had to come up with something, so I said, I want to read Ponniyin Selvan. I have still not read it in Tamil (and I may never get there!) but thanks to the efforts of C.V. Karthik Narayan I have been able to read this in English. This truly was a labour of love for this man. This guy is an engineer with a day job, not a professional translator,
Last year I read "Gujarat No Nath" and "Rajadhiraj" by K M Munshi. I loved those books. Since I read those books I added historical fictions to my favorite book genre. Books like Ponnis Beloved reminded me Munshi's books. I just read the first part of five volumes and Sumeetha I am not sure whether I can wait for your next translations. I am already keeping watch on the price of the complete set.Ponni's Beloved is the story of Chola Dynasty during Sundar Chola and his sons time. Though the main
