Relationships are usually magical. That magic makes us do quite a lot of work. That magic will alternate our lives. It will be like a rollercoaster. Sometimes we are able to be in cloudnine subsequent minutes and we are probably deep down.
Imaiyam has captured the essence of the novel through language. In Tamil, ‘வட்டார வழக்கு’, regional slang in English. Reading an entire novel in regional slang is the positivity. From the beginning, Imaiyam carries the sensitivity. Instead of “Kathai” (கதை), Imaiyam calls it “Kathe” (கதெ). The use of vernacular language is deep in the work.
Imayam short stories and novels preserve a reflection of humanity, explaining caste subtly serves as a divider and unifier. It examines the hidden multi-layers in caste politics, proper from the grassroots to the equations that rule the better echelons of the strong structure. His girls are strikingly independent, show off the preventing spirit and do not attempt to stay in an enchanted synthetic world.
Most of Imaiyam’s characters don’t stick with us. Their dialogue and the way dialogue is delivered will stay with us. ‘En Kathe En Kathe’ is one such novel. Sometimes we will feel like slapping the protagonist for his craziness for the woman. The metaphors, personification and examples are excellent. They are taken from our day to day life. The important feature of having a novel in vernacular style is their examples make us understand and sync with us.
The climax is a bit different. A good read.

Pazhani consumes poison after ensuring that she has reached her lover
Imayam has continually been inquisitive about the ordinary lives of “ordinary” men and women. He harbours within them splendid characteristics withinside the face of inequality and oppression. All his novel stands out for their twist and language.
