A new book revisits Kerala’s matrilineal past where women were more empowered in terms of exercising their right to decision-making and ownership of property.
Drop of The Last Cloud by Sangeetha G is set in Travancore at a time when Kerala’s old matrilineal system was changing. It explores the life of a woman named Gomathi.
Sangeetha, whose writing has been largely journalistic for more than two decades, wanted to tell stories that can make a larger impact on the readers and thus Drop of the Last Cloud, a fiction with a historical context, was born.
