Pyre / Perumal Murugan ; translated from the Tamil by Aniruddhan Vasudevan. - Revised edition. - London : Pushkin Press, 2022. - 202, [10] stron ; 20 cm.
Saroja and Kumaresan are in love.
After a hasty wedding, they arrive in Kumaresan’s village, harbouring the dangerous secret that their marriage is an inter-caste one, likely to anger the villagers should they learn of it...
...With spare, powerful prose, Murugan masterfully conjures a terrifying vision of intolerance in this devastating tale of innocent young love pitted against chilling savagery.
