Question: The film "Thalavattam" is based on a 1962 novel by an author born in what year?
Context: King Rat is a 1962 novel by James Clavell and the author's literary debut.  Set during World War II, the novel describes the struggle for survival of American, Australian, British, Dutch, and New Zealander prisoners of war in a Japanese camp in Singapore—a description informed by Clavell's own three-year experience as a prisoner in the notorious Changi Prison camp.  One of the major characters, Peter Marlowe, is based upon Clavell's younger self. Children of Their City (Swedish: Barn av sin stad ) is a 1962 novel by Swedish author Per Anders Fogelström.  It is the second novel of the "City" novels. The Ticket That Exploded is a 1962 novel by American author William S. Burroughs, published by Olympia Press and later by Grove Press in 1967.  Together with "The Soft Machine" and "Nova Express" it is part of a trilogy, referred to as "The Nova Trilogy", created using the cut-up technique, although for this book Burroughs used a variant called 'the fold-in' method.  The novel is an anarchic tale concerning mind control by psychic, electronic, sexual, pharmaceutical, subliminal, and other means.  Passages from the other two books and even from this book show up in rearranged form and are often repeated.  This work is significant for fans of Burroughs, in that it describes his idea of language as a virus and his philosophy of the cut-up technique.  Also, it features the cut-up technique being used by characters within the story.  "The Ticket That Exploded" lays the groundwork for Burroughs' ideas of social revolution through technology, which he would later detail in his book-length essay "The Electronic Revolution". Big Sur is a 1962 novel by Jack Kerouac.  It recounts the events surrounding Kerouac's (here known by the name of his fictional alter-ego Jack Duluoz) three brief sojourns to a cabin in Bixby Canyon, Big Sur, owned by Kerouac's friend and Beat poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti.  The novel departs from Kerouac's previous fictionalized autobiographical series in that the character Duluoz is shown as a popular, published author.  The Subterraneans also mentions Kerouac's (Leo Percepied) status as an author, and in fact even mentions how some of the bohemians of New York are beginning to talk in slang derived from his writing.  Kerouac's previous novels are restricted to depicting Kerouac's days as a bohemian traveller.
