Pick an option to check yourself, or open the answer below.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A. The Book of Desire (from the Tirukkural)

Explanation

Meena Kandasamy translated the Kamattuppal of the Tirukkural as The Book of Desire (2023). Poonachi, One Part Woman and Pyre are Murugan's novels about caste and gender.

Note: The source calls these 'Dalit narratives'; Murugan writes about caste but is not himself Dalit.
