Thunder & Sweetness

June 15, 2022

I was honored to offer a talk in English and Tamil as the chief guest for the 2021 Awards Ceremony of the Tamil Literary Garden online on June 11, 2022.

You can also watch the complete Awards Ceremony here:

I invite you to learn more about my translation of the Kural as well as my translation of Avvaiyar, being issued in a second edition in 2022 by Red Hen Press.
