Translating to 'The Burnt Forests' (a poignant line from a Bharathiyar poem), this acclaimed novel by Indira Parthasarathy is based on the tragic real-life Keezhvenmani massacre of 1968. It is a searing portrayal of class and caste struggles, documenting the exploitation of agricultural laborers by landlords, their subsequent uprising, and the horrifying violence that reduced their lives to 'burnt forests'.
