Cherappayi Kathakal

Like the characters Payyans and Chathans by VKN, Cherappayi the Lawyer was also a satirical symbol of a particular time. These Cherappayi Tales, set among courts and surrounding premises, are full of humor and thoughtful insights. Characteristic dialogues and dietary habits of the Christian community in Thrissur, moves and counter-moves by lawyers in black-coats, wrongful acts by social and political organisations... the book is filled with such tales.
