ലക്ഷകണക്കിനു മലയാളികള്‍ ഗള്‍ഫില്‍ ജീവിക്കുന്നു, ലക്ഷങ്ങള്‍ ജീവിച്ചു തിരിച്ചു പോയിരിക്കുന്നു. ഇതില്‍ എത്ര പേര്‍ മരുഭൂമിയുടെ തീക്ഷ്‌ണത സത്യമായും അനുഭവിച്ചിട്ടുണ്ട്. ആ തീക്ഷ്ണത തൊട്ടറിഞ്ഞ, അഥവാ മണല്‍‌പരപ്പിലെ ജീവിതം ചുട്ടുപൊള്ളിച്ച നജീബ് എന്നയാളുടെ അനുഭവമാണ് ആടുജീവിതത്തിനു പ്രേരണയായതെന്ന് നോവലിസ്‌റ്റ് ബെന്യാമിന്‍ പറയുന്നു. പ്രവാസജീവിതത്തിലെ തികച്ചും വ്യത്യസ്‌തമായ ഒരേട്.

Comment On Based On Books ആടുജീവിതം | Aatujeevitham

Original Malayalam title: ആടുജീവിതം (Aadujeevitham) - winner of 2009 Kerala Sahitya Akademi Award.Though its said to be fiction, but actually is inspired by (many?) true lives of Malayalis. They say - "The grass is always greener on the other side" and our protagonist Najeeb leaves behind his family and expecting wife, for finding greener grass (big moolahs) in the deserts of Saudi Arabia.The beginning of the book describes how desperately he wants to end up in a jail in Saudi, and rest of the

This a very depressing book. There are thousands of people lured by the dream of working in the Gulf countries and earning money. While a handful of them make it, there are scores who are duped and cheated by their sponsors who make them work for a pittance and exploit them. One such story is that of Najeeb Muhammad, who is dreaming of a cushy job in Saudi Arabia and sending back the money so that he can pay off his loans and earn enough to provide for his family. However, he gets duped and is

This is one of the best work of fiction I have ever read in Malayalam. A land mark book. We can feel the pain and emotions that the author would have undergone while writing this book. The book is as raw as life could be and as beautiful as life should be. Being an author myself, I could associate with the afterword in which the author describes the process of writing. Writing itself is a tough task, writing so beautifully, so lyrically is nearly impossible. Benyamin has achieved the near

'Goat Days' is an unusual novel: probably quite unlike anything else you'll read this year. A relatively rare translation from Malayalam by Joseph Koyipally, it is, as its title suggests, a book in which goats feature prominently. So prominently, in fact, that by the end you'll know more than you ever thought you'd know, and ever wanted to know, about the frisky beasts. You'll know how to feed them, how to castrate them, how to dodge a buck if it turns nasty (see previous operation). You'll know

I badly wanted to read this one for years. I wonder how it failed to impress me. :(
