Gokakfalls Nanu mattu Baduku (Atma Kathana)

Description

ABOUT THE BOOK

Author& Poet Arjun Y. Pangannavara’s book “Gokakfalls, Nanu mattu Baduku”, an autobiography in Kannada, focuses on his own experience in love and life. The book has six chapters on nature, fate, life’s different looks and stages, and love’s different faces, gifts, conversations, pleasures, longings, despairs, soothing, and commemoration. These chapters narrate the events and incidents of life during a specific period on account of the happenings and instant feelings from a stubborn and maddened heart, events and their instant reaction; so these chapters are the memories of those events both tragic and happiness that I depicted them in the form of narrations, some are narrated to eternalized the love and loved one, some are the sweet memories of boyhood and youth, some are bitterness of life and some other struggles for social reforms and justice to workers. The heart’s perception is strange, it shares its feelings, not passion, with those who feel so; love must be enduring but should not be erotic, meanwhile, love is for all so it must also be eternalized. So, my experiences may diffuse life’s understanding to the readers, but they are prayed not to despise them, they are my love and life moments.
