Pon Vilangu / பொன் விலங்கு

At the conclusion of this 'Golden Beast Novel' in Kalki magazine, many thousands of readers wrote heartily praising the novel depicting the aspirations of our national poet Bharati, national unity and the well-being of education. I have compiled the opinions of some of them here as a preface to this novel. This is the Republican era. Future endings and present tense are the opinion of quality reading greats. So rather than buy a foreword from any literature professor or write a great foreword on my own, I am proud to present here as a foreword some of the comments from the readers. My love and gratitude goes to the Kalki executives who published this novel, and to my friend Somas Kandanar who took note of it this morning, and to the Tamil Library who is publishing it as a book.
