Nilavukku theriyum

Nilavukku theriyum (The moon knows) are a collection of short stories written by Chandra Raveendran. The expression of melancholy need not be in tears always often it becomes a frozen rock in the heart. Chandra's stories express such grief. These stories are not caught in the storm of grief but they are touched by grief constantly like the waves to the shore. Moving away from the self the author also identifies with and express the grief of those around her protagonists. Writer Uma Varadarajan praises Chandra's stories especially for their honesty to truth.
