The unforgettable men and women in N. Prabhakaran's stories have an uncanny ability to expose the fault lines between the real and the unreal, the normal and the mad, as they explore their own inner worlds and psychic wounds. A pioneer of the post-modern aesthetic turn, N. Prabhakaran weaves the nitty-gritty of everyday, small-town lives into his stories-all set in northern Kerala-that are steeped in folklore, nature, factional politics and the intricacies of human relationships. Brilliantly translated by Jayasree Kalathil, Diary of a Malayali Madman marks the very first time this major Indian writer's

work is available in English.

N. PRABHAKARAN is a major contemporary writer in Kerala and a pioneer of the post-modern aesthetic turn in Malayalam literature. He has published over forty works of novels, poetry, plays, short story collections, essays and a memoir. He is the recipient of several honours including the Kerala Sahitya Akademi Award; the EMS Memorial Trust Award; the Vaikom Muhammed Basheer Memorial Trust Award; the Malayatoor Award; the Odakkuzhal Award; and the Muttathu Varky Literary Award for Contributions to Malayalam literature. Diary of a Malayali Madman, translated by Jayasree Kalathil, won the 2019 Crossword Book Award.

Jayasree Kalathil is the author of The Sackclothman, a children's book that has been translated into Malayalam, Telugu and Hindi. Her translations from Malayalam have won the JCB Prize for Literature, the Crossword Book Award for Translation, the V. Abdulla Memorial Translation Award, Jury Commendation from Muse India-GSP Rao Translation Award, and been shortlisted for the American Literary Translators Association National Translation Award. In 2024, her translation of Sandhya Mary's Maria, Just Maria brought her the Crossword Book Award for the second time and a third appearance in the shortlist for the JCB Prize for Literature. As part of the global effort #readpalestine, she has translated Palestinian poetry into Malayalam, including works by Mosab Abu Toha, Mahmoud Darwish, Refaat Alareer, Hiba Abu Nada and Samih al-Qasim.

Originally from Kottakkal in Malappuram district, Kerala, Jayasree currently lives in the New Forest in Hampshire, UK.
