    Balakumaran, I love the transition of this man from just a novelist to a spiritual person..I have met him in 1993.

    If you like Devan and Anuthama,you get their books in a shop called ALLIANCE near Mylapore tank.It is my favorite store .You get Cho Ramaswamy books as well as other books of authors of late 50 or 60s.Even one more author called S.V.V.His books are hilarious.Devan's famous drama was THUMPARIYUM SAMBU.Almost all the books are good and I have the entire collection.Sujatha books are good.So is RAJAM KRISHNAN.There are other shops like MANIMEGALAI PATIPAKKAM in T.nagar where you will get all the books.
