ABOUT THIS BOOK

God’s Own Country or Devil’s Own People? Left or right? Tourism brochure or environmental quicksand? Poised for a global role or rambling rhetoric? Will the real Kerala please stand up? The Malayali society, along with its political hierarchies and cultural cliches, is still grappling with continuous change; as its headlines show, everyday is a new day. Exploring the new emerging Kerala, with a clear clairvoyance on this southern Indian state, leading thinkers and writers chronicle their views – by turns satirical, insightful, passionate and playful – in Kerala Kerala, Quite Contrary.
