Tomorrow is One More Day

This novella by the maverick Tamil prose writer G. Nagarajan centres on one eventful day in the life of a small-scale operator, fix-it man, pimp and procurer, Kandan. It offers a reading of the seamy margins of society and explores time and temporality, human desire and the possibility of love in the harsh and often violent underworld of a small town in Tamil Nadu. Translated by Abbie Ziffren, one of the finest readers of modern Tamil prose, and with an insightful introduction by David Shulman, Tomorrow Is One More Day presents a major Tamil novelist to a whole new audience.
