S. Suresh:
If you could travel to any fictional book world, where would you go and what would you do there?
S. Suresh
Where I would go is an easy question to answer - The Chozha kingdom (சோழ நாடு) in Kalki's masterpiece Ponniyin Selvan (பொன்னியின் செல்வன்), the only book I wanted to give 6 stars out of 5.
The second part of the question, what I would do there, required a bit of introspection. Would I simply stay put in one location? Perhaps in the capital city of Tanjavur? Or a smaller place like Kudandai? Or in a small village by the Cauvery river? I realized that I would want to become a good friend of the hero, Vanthiyathevan and join him in his adventures, moving from place to place, taking in the beauty of the Chozha kingdom and the neighboring states.
