When The Kurinji Blooms

Translated from the Tamil Kurinjithen, Rajam Krishnan’s lyrical and erudite novel is a family saga of three generations of Badagas in the Nilgiris. As the winds of social change and modernity invade their protected lives, the innocence and harmony is replaced by conflict and tragedy that precede a new beginning.
