description: This is an evocative account of a journey along South India's greatest river. Witness to centuries of eventful history, the Kaveri has often been called "the river of life." Over the ages the river has been glorified in Tamil culture, music, religious liturgy and literature. T. Janakiraman and Chitti journeyed down the Kaveri in 1967, exploring the creativity that has blossomed on its banks and uncovering the river's rich heritage. The result of their journey was this travelogue, described by renowned novelist R.K. Narayan as one of the finest contemporary books in Tamil. Published for the first time in English, the book brings one of the world's mightiest rivers gloriously and vividly alive.
