Mythily Chari

Read Covenant of water by Dr. Abraham Vergese. I grew up in Kerala, yet I learnt so much about the history and culture of a bye gone Era not learnt from History lessons. A medical practioner by profession his language is like the ebb and flow of blood in our arteries and veins. The book takes you out on a Vallom (slow boat) you pause and savour the events people and landscape slowly leisurely. Such a humanist and an empath Dr. Abraham Verghese. 800 pages I read in 6 days. Even forgetting to cook my meal one day. Unputdownable.
