The novel explores the complex love story between Karutthamma, a Hindu fisherwoman, and Pareekkutty, a Muslim fish wholesaler's son, highlighting the tensions of religious boundaries. Karutthamma marries Palani, who trusts her despite her past, as fishermen believe a wife's fidelity ensures their safety at sea. Their love reignites during a chance encounter while Palani is away, deepening themes of longing and loyalty. This acclaimed work, now translated by Anita Nair, offers a poignant glimpse into the cultural dynamics of Indian society.
