Ponniyin Selvan - Part 1

reading ponniyin selvan every summer is a ritual like to me. each volume feels like returning home, to the days where my mom will sit with me and read every athiyayam, her voice ever so gently narrating the story like music. she is my first audiobook, my first entry into this world. now that i’m a grownass kid, she won’t narrate it to me anymore, so i pick it up myself. and still, i get awestruck  by this saga, its grandeur, its characters, its essence. honestly, no words are enough to capture what this series means to me. 

side note: nandhini is such a diva, if i were a character from this book, i too would lose my morals, my mind, and d word for her… maybe even destroy a whole kingdom 🚬
