Poojyam written by Ravivarma Thampuran , published by NBS.2018 I was ead the book poojyam.verey intrested and conveying good messages.so I selected that book Poojyam novel one of the best novel.please add

message 84: by Jomon (last edited May 22, 2018 01:35PM) (new)

Ghasakinte ithihsam is the ever best classic novel in malayalam.
Verukkal(Malayatoor) , Nalukettu (MT), daivathinte vikrathikal,Mayyazhipuzhayude theerangalil (Mukundan), Pathummayude Adu (Basheer), Punathil's Smaraka silakal are the nolstalgic novels of all time.
T.D Ramakrishnan's ' Francis Etticora' is a rarest classic.
Malayatoors's 'Yakshi'-psyco-thriller, Benyamen's 'Manjaveyil Maranangal' are the rarest thrillers.
Benyamen's classic -Adu geevitham(one of the all time classic)
MT's Randamoozham(second turn)- Altime Finest epic classic -recreation of myth..
Balakrishanan's -Ini Njan orangantte-a finest novels
Anand's-Marubhoomikal Undavunnathu,Govardante yatraka,Perupadavam's -Oru Sakkeerthanam pole,Agnisakshi- by Laleethabhika Adarganam
narmadipudava-by Sara Thomas
-must read novels
Chemeen-Altime favourite
Perupadavam's -Oru Sakkeerthanam pole
OVs 'Kadatheerathu', MT's 'Vanaprastham, (short stories)..Thakazhi's Chemeen,Ennipadikal, Mukundan's Keshavante Vilapangal, Basheer's Oru manushan are missing in the list.


Being a 'Malayalam-must-read-books'-list' it would be more appropriate if we select/add books on the basis of one more criterion namely 'by-a-Malayali-author'. This would allow identifying and promoting unknown/unheard of Malayalam authors and titles which I believe are mostly overshadowed by the books of big authors, promoted through mainstream.
In my opinion, inclusion of books translated from other languages beats the purpose of this list . This could lead to inclusion of translated fiction from the western countries and other regions which is irrelevant to this list (like the ones in #109 & #117).

as usual, a must read book from Benyamin.

I read the books mentioned above and I felt they are touching, readable and priaseworthy. But the reason why they are not so popular because they are published after his Magnum opus 'Adu Jeevitham'.The same fate can be seen in several other good books. Milton's 'Lycidas' is an excellent example.


I like to add Kakkanadan's 'Mazhanizhal Pradesham' among this list.

Is OK. We're looking for the 10 best books, so we should be allowed to vote. If you're interested in what the people on this list think are the 10 best books, just check the first 10 in the list :)


There are far more than 10 books on this list..




Gouri and other stories of T Pathamanbhant to be inculded in this list as they are beautiful stories in the Malayalam

Francis Itticora and Suganthi anna Andal Devanayaki are Grate work.
Must read.






Read 'oru arabian novel factory' it can be deemed a highly controversial book,in which the author describes a middle-east country which is plagued by cicvil unrest in highlight of jasmine revolution or arab spring,the depth and minute things that benyamin portrays is like you watch it front of you, mullapoo manmulla ravukal is about a book supposedly written by a Pakistani expat who lived in that country during this civil unrest,both are amazing and ewen though both books describe the revolution, benyamin takes it to a different t angle , a good book if you know a of recent Arab spring

Poojyam written by Ravivarma Thampuran , published by NBS.2018 I was ead the book poojyam.verey intrested and conveying good messages.so I selected that book Poojyam novel one of the best novel.please add

message 84: by Jomon (last edited May 22, 2018 01:35PM) (new)

Ghasakinte ithihsam is the ever best classic novel in malayalam.
Verukkal(Malayatoor) , Nalukettu (MT), daivathinte vikrathikal,Mayyazhipuzhayude theerangalil (Mukundan), Pathummayude Adu (Basheer), Punathil's Smaraka silakal are the nolstalgic novels of all time.
T.D Ramakrishnan's ' Francis Etticora' is a rarest classic.
Malayatoors's 'Yakshi'-psyco-thriller, Benyamen's 'Manjaveyil Maranangal' are the rarest thrillers.
Benyamen's classic -Adu geevitham(one of the all time classic)
MT's Randamoozham(second turn)- Altime Finest epic classic -recreation of myth..
Balakrishanan's -Ini Njan orangantte-a finest novels
Anand's-Marubhoomikal Undavunnathu,Govardante yatraka,Perupadavam's -Oru Sakkeerthanam pole,Agnisakshi- by Laleethabhika Adarganam
narmadipudava-by Sara Thomas
-must read novels
Chemeen-Altime favourite
Perupadavam's -Oru Sakkeerthanam pole
OVs 'Kadatheerathu', MT's 'Vanaprastham, (short stories)..Thakazhi's Chemeen,Ennipadikal, Mukundan's Keshavante Vilapangal, Basheer's Oru manushan are missing in the list.


Being a 'Malayalam-must-read-books'-list' it would be more appropriate if we select/add books on the basis of one more criterion namely 'by-a-Malayali-author'. This would allow identifying and promoting unknown/unheard of Malayalam authors and titles which I believe are mostly overshadowed by the books of big authors, promoted through mainstream.
In my opinion, inclusion of books translated from other languages beats the purpose of this list . This could lead to inclusion of translated fiction from the western countries and other regions which is irrelevant to this list (like the ones in #109 & #117).

as usual, a must read book from Benyamin.

'

I read the books mentioned above and I felt they are touching, readable and priaseworthy. But the reason why they are not so popular because they are published after his Magnum opus 'Adu Jeevitham'.The same fate can be seen in several other good books. Milton's 'Lycidas' is an excellent example.


I like to add Kakkanadan's 'Mazhanizhal Pradesham' among this list.

Is OK. We're looking for the 10 best books, so we should be allowed to vote. If you're interested in what the people on this list think are the 10 best books, just check the first 10 in the list :)


There are far more than 10 books on this list..




Gouri and other stories of T Pathamanbhant to be inculded in this list as they are beautiful stories in the Malayalam

Both of them are good book.But you cant compare with them Manjaveyil maranangal and aadujeevitham


aadujeevitham is a wonderful novel.such a heart touching story of a man's life.hats off benyamin for contributing this novel to malayalam


Most of the books I have voted as I read, I read when I was in School. Now after about 15 years, I am going re read all of them. And I will add reviews once I have.

Francis Itticora and Suganthi anna Andal Devanayaki are Grate work.
Must read.






Read 'oru arabian novel factory' it can be deemed a highly controversial book,in which the author describes a middle-east country which is plagued by cicvil unrest in highlight of jasmine revolution or arab spring,the depth and minute things that benyamin portrays is like you watch it front of you, mullapoo manmulla ravukal is about a book supposedly written by a Pakistani expat who lived in that country during this civil unrest,both are amazing and ewen though both books describe the revolution, benyamin takes it to a different t angle , a good book if you know a of recent Arab spring
