Peruvazhiyambalam Padmarajan Malayalam Novel review

Teenager Raman in a heat of moment in self defense kills Prabhakaran Pillai,local thug.He tries to escape from his village but is haunted by fear of police and about his  sisters he left behind.Help comes from unexpected quarters, a nemesis of Prabhakaran Pillai,a prostitute and from a person wronged by Prabhakaran Pillai.Eventhough safe in shelter provided by these people he is haunted by guilt and wants to return to his village.

Padmarajan beautifully captures troubled teenage mind and also the hapless lives of people left behind after violence.This novel formed the basis of his first feature film as a director.

My rating: EXCELLENT

Review in Malayalam
