*by V***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 April 2017*

Excellent book, sympathetic to Tamil as Tamil speakers see it without losing objectivity . A must for anyone to understand the complexities of Tamil and the attitude of Tamil speakers to the  language.  The author has devoted a number of pages to Manipravalam , a language writing style in which Sanskrit words my be in varying degrees incorporated in Tamil texts , usually in Grantham lipi. This part is much needed. I also resonate with the author's view that for the last 100 years, there is an overemphasis on Sangam classics as the most important part of Tamil literary heritage , while many creative literature of the 12th to 19th centuries are neglected as if they don't exist or don't deserve appreciation. This has led to lopsided in Tamil literary and much else appreciation by Tamils. It is high time Tamil literary consciousness takes it's head buried in the sands of 'Golden age of Sangam tamil' to the present and future

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars
