Book: The Sound of Waves
Translated By: Gowri Ramnarayan
Illustrated By: Paridhi Didwania
This book by Gowri Ramnarayan is the English translation of the bestselling Tamil novel Alai Osai by freedom fighter and novelist ‘Kalki’ R. Krishnamurthy (1899-1954).
With poignant detail and lyrical prose, Kalki's tour de force lays bare the emotions of ordinary people grappling with extraordinary changes, their circumstances riven with misfortunes, disasters and the carnage of Partition. The Sound of Waves is an impassioned tribute to everyday citizens and their woes, and an acute commentary on the aspirations of an emerging nation.
We illustrated the book cover with an imagination of flow of water depicting the coolness of ocean yet roaring wave energy which depicts the essence of the storyline with the text flowing to bring a dramatic look.
