About The Book

This deeply felt memoir translated from the acclaimed original in Malayalam chronicles the endeavours of four generations of the Kandathil Varughese Mappillai family that set up the Malayala Manorama the Travancore National and Quilon Bank and other enterprises. With great candour K.M. Mathew describes how their fortunes changed when their support to the nationalist State Congress brought upon them the wrath of the Travancore dewan leading to the banks collapse; and how through sheer persistence and diligence they could rebuild the paper and go on to establish huge companies. Mathew also shows that throughout the paper upheld the values of liberalism credibility and democracy which it continues to do until today. Featuring some of Keralas tallest figures over almost a century The Eighth Ring is a rich portrait of a remarkable man his family-clan and their stirring times.
