hello friends, wish you all a happy new year. I am sethuraman. A new member to our fold. Visited Book fair. Bought the following: 1. Bought one pack of Ponniyin Selvan for gifting to my bro. 2. Bought "justice jagannathan" by "Thevan" which was missing in my Thevan's collections - from "kizhakku padhipagam" 3. Got all copies of "Surya kadhir" - a new magazine introduced. 4. Visited vikatan stall - got "gopulu" Madan - Raju - jokes collections. 5. Got a lot of kids collections from different stalls. Thank you, Sethuraman(intimatesethu)
I am sure the group knows this place. there is also a very old siva temple nearmedambakkam - Thenupureeswarar temple near Siddhar temple. Siddhar temple is a recent one - but thenupureeswarar temple is very old and Sundara Cholan and Anbil anirutha brahmarayar has done thiruppani here. there are modern kalvettu's also. a peaceful and serene atmosphere.
Do you have Miss.Janaki in your 'Thevan's Collection? Unfortunately i dont have tat and moreover, neither Alliance(which published his novels earlier) nor Kizhakku have this :(
Yes Mouli, I have it. One of my relatives (father's cousin) is having the entire collection in original binding. He is above 86 years and am begging him to part with those to me. But my efforts are in vain. You don't get the "thrill" (?) or the excitment in reading them in paper packs - and the originals have the touch of some jokes (raju - maali- gopulu) and also more than those the drwaings - original pictures by gopulu etc. really take you to those age. Welcome anytime to my res. No.A-5, Kokila apartments, 40, Malony Road, T.Nagar. My phone nos. 24340188 - 24320205.
