Jayakanthan Sirukathaigal Thoguppu - 1 by Jayakanthan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A the name suggests it is a series of short stories. Most of the stories are about the exploitation of the poor (read non-brahmins) by the rich (read brahmins). It could be based in any city or town or village in Tamil Nadu a few decades back. The situation has changed from then on and the exploitation has thankfully reduced. It has not disappeared completely as one would like it to.

This exploitation continues in the North of India to a large extent and time someone starts a social revolution to change this.

A decent read.
