Kaadhal Kaditham

This is the first published novel of Vaikkom Muhammad Basheer. It was published in 1943. Though the writer describes it as 'a funny story', but it is not merely that. It speaks of the social norms of its time in a satirical tone, and details the complexity of love. The great writer that Basheer would go on to become, is seen in this novel too. Effortless storytelling, a unique language, nuances in character description and many such 'Basheer-esque' traits are found throughout this work. Even after three-fourth of a century, the novel is still readable and enthralling. 'Love Letter' is proof that Basheer's works are timeless.
