Pedro Paramo

Mexican writer Juan Rulfo’s most popular novel in Malayalam, translated by Vilasini, author of Avakasikal. The book also has a detailed study of Spanish-American novel by Vilasini, an introduction to Juan Rulfo by Dr K T Ramavarma and a piece of memoir written by Gabriel García Márquez. Beseeched by his dying mother to locate his father, Pedro Paramo, whom they fled from years ago, Juan Preciado sets out for Comala, a town seemingly populated only by memory and hallucinations. Built on the tyranny of the Paramo family, its barren and broken-down streets echo the voices of tormented spirits sharing the secrets of the past.
