The Way of Life in the Novel "Thuppukari"

Abstract

Various creators and thinkers keep appearing from time to time. In their works, they leave traces of the information they discover in the environment in which they lived. Writers, creators, and literary men create various works and disappear. But their work lives on with us. We are also reading the literature created in the last century. We are also reading contemporary pieces. I have taken to sharing with you the novel written by a writer who is living with us today. The novel that I have taken up is Thuppukari, a novel by Malarvathi from Kanyakumari district. We have seen so much scientific development and scientific progress in modern times. We have created a robot with such artificial intelligence that it can even think what we are thinking. Even though we have developed so much scientifically, we are lagging behind in some basic things. I have chosen this novel because it portrays the lives of people who are doing low-class occupations or low-class people who are backward in such basic comfort. And we should not end this with the act of reading and enjoying this novel. This novel should lead to a path of awareness Thuppukari's novel is explored keeping in mind that it should break the misconception about some activities which are considered inferior.
