Attention Writers - The Power of the Internet!

My novel, 'Kudivaravaalan,' has been translated into English by writer Latha Ramakrishnan as 'An Immigrant.' You can read it on the Noolaham website. I recently came across some information about this novel during a Google search: Dr. P. Muthulakshmi, an Assistant Professor from Tamil Nadu, presented an English critical analysis of this novel at an international literary conference. The title of her research paper is 'Ethnic Conflict in V.N. Giritharan’s An Immigrant.'

It is also noteworthy that Dr. Dharani Akhil has previously written two English research papers about this novel. The details are as follows:

Let us salute for Alex Pretti's humanitarianism!

In Minneapolis, U.S. President Donald Trump's oppression against immigrants continues. The rampage of his ICE agenst continues. Without any humanity, they continue to shamefully arrest women, the elderly, and children, and to use excessive force against them.

In one such instance, one of the aforementioned ICE agents pushes a woman onto the roadside. Following him, several more ICE agents rush to assist, like hunting dogs. Alex Pretti, a white male nurse, runs to save that innocent woman. Although he had a legal firearm at his waist, he does not attempt to use it under any circumstance. As soon as one of the ICE agents sees it and takes it, Alex Pretti is shot and killed.

Let us salute for Alex Pretti's humanitarianism.

Manthirimani Must Be Preserved! It's Not Too Late! Let's Protect It! Let's Preserve History! - V.N.Giritharan -

The Jaffna 'Manthirimani' building, which was already in a state of disrepair due to insufficient maintenance, has suffered further damage from recent heavy rains. These visuals reveal its condition. We had the power to prevent this situation from befalling 'Manthirimani', but we failed to act. This is regrettable.

Buildings need to be preserved for many reasons. As structures belonging to a specific period, as expressions of architectural styles, as they are connected to historical events, and as the historical identity of a race – buildings must be preserved. In that sense, all these reasons apply to Manthirimani.

The architectural features of this building include both Dravidian and European architectural elements, the building materials used, and the period in which it was built. All these factors emphasize the necessity for this building to be considered and maintained as a historical monument. According to information on the facade of this building, it was constructed in 1890.

It is said that there was an underground passage belonging to this building, which has now been closed off. Further research on this should be conducted.

The land on which this building is located is named 'Sangilithoppu'. I observed this when examining the land survey department maps for this area. The fact that the land where this building stands is named Sangilithoppu and the building itself is called Manthirimani highlights its historical significance. Given the proximity to other historically important areas like Pandarakkulam, Sangiliyan Street, and Arasakesari Valavu, it appears to me that the area where this building is located must have held significance during the Tamil Kings' era in the following ways:

Poem: I will lose my heart in blue! by V.N.Giritharan

I will lose my heart in blue.
I will feel the depth of space-time.

Blue color, soft blue color
Is close to my heart. So close to my heart.
My love, that color
Is even your favorite color, isn't it?
You often say
That it's your favorite color too.
Isn't that right, My love! You tell me!

I will lose my heart in blue.
I will feel the depth of space-time.

The vast blue sky
The expansive blue-splashed sea
Sights that bring joy to the eyes.
I will lose myself then.
Still remembered, my dearest,
You walking in a soft blue dress.
Do you still remember it too?
If you say yes, my heart will be full.

I will lose my heart in blue.
I will feel the depth of space-time.

In the peace of the expansive blue sky,
I see the beauty that graces your face.
In the clarity of the vast blue sea,
Your compassionate, clear heart is visible.
In the blue-hued, expansive sky,
My Love , I feel your rich, broad knowledge.
The coolness given by the blue sky, the blue sea,
My Love, I feel it in your gaze.

I will lose my heart in blue.
I will feel the depth of space-time.

Lionel Richie's voice is one that tears through the heart and melts the soul!

Following the 1983 riots in Sri Lanka, for the very first time in a foreign land, in the world-renowned city of New York, America, while I was wandering as a refugee, there were four singers whose songs resonated everywhere. Therefore, whenever memories of those singers arise, I am reminded of those days spent wandering as a refugee on American soil.

Lionel Richie, Cyndi Lauper, Billy Joel, and Michael Jackson were those singers. It was also the time when Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' had been released. Black teenage boys would play Michael Jackson's songs on cassette players on the sidewalks, twisting, turning, and cutting their bodies to perform 'break dance.'

Music & Vocal - SUNO AI    Image - Google AI

**This song is an English translation of my Tamil song

Chess is a game.
Life, too, is a game.

To win in chess,
Thinking before moving is crucial.
To win on earth,
Pondering before moving is essential.

Chess is a game.
Life, too, is a game 

Chess is a battlefield.
Life, too, is a battlefield.
To win on the battlefield,
Patience is extremely necessary.

Chess is a game.
Life, too, is a game 

Those who are patient will rule the earth.
In the battlefield, those who are patient will achieve victory.
In chess, they will create achievements 
Whatever comes, they will rise and conquer.

Chess is a game.
Life, too, is a game.
