In Yellow Is the Color of Longing, Meera's astonishing range of narrative techniques is on full display. These defiant, ebullient stories lay bare the fault lines behind the façade of everyday life, sometimes with dark humor and sometimes with astoundingly bitter sadness. Devika's sparkling translation expertly brings out the subtlety and nuance of Meera's unique voice.
A bilingual feminist scholar, J. Devika has translated Malayali women writers from the late nineteenth and early twentieth century’s, and contemporary authors like Sarah Joseph, Nalini Jameela, Anitha Thampi and V.M. Girija besides K.R. Meera.
