பொன்னியின் செல்வ அளவுக்கு தாக்கத்தை ஏற்படுத்தவில்லை எனினும் கல்கியின் ஆளுமை ஒவ்வொரு காட்சியையும் மனத்திரையிலே கொண்டுவந்து நிறுத்தும் என்பதில் ஐயமேதுமில்லை. Many thanks to Kalki for bringing me the habit of reading books!!. When I was pursuing my Master's degree at Government College of Technology, Coimbatore, it was happened to read Kalki's "PARTHIBAN KANAVU" (thanks for my room-mate a good reader then), ofcourse I started the novel by 7.10 pm as a short time pass until the dinner 7.30 pm. But I was trapped by his writing and I lost my dinner that night and finally put down the book after 12.00. I never thought of reading a full book before, but it had happened by his fascinating narrating of the story. I could visualize the scenes, characters ofcourse every instants delivered in the book and hailed by the surprise almost in every page. Immediately I bought his other books, ponniyin selvan and sivagamiyin sabatham they are astounded then I switched to similar kind of novels and grew frantic in reading. I always believe "A good book can change your life". I don't want to review these three books (Parthiban Kanavu, Sivagamiyin Sabatham and Ponniyin Selvan)because these three books are such an extraordinary and exceptionally written in Tamil.
What do You think about Sivakamiyin Sabadam = Sivakami's Vow (1944)?
greatest epic story..but it hurts when still many of them unaware of this story....
