5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. A Good TranslationBy HaranI recently came across this book and I am very pleased to have read it. Archana Venkatesan had done a wonderful rendering of this masterpiece; which is one of the greatest works in Tamil. A devotional poetry written eleven centuries ago has found its way into the 21st century for the modern audience. I am happy and I highly appreciate this work. I hope Archana takes a stand to transalate the works of Thiru. Jnana Sambandhar; Appar; Manickavasagar and Sundaramorthy Nayanars as well. They will bring great glory and benifit to the entire humanity.Haran0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
