Themmadikkuzhi

Rogue's Ground

Coming soon

In the neglected corner of a Kerala churchyard lies Themmadikkuzhi — Rogue's Ground — where those denied a proper place among the dead keep one another's stories alive.

As the landscape beyond the cemetery is steadily altered, and the line between memory and forgetting begins to thin, a voice from the ground sets out to preserve what the living have overlooked.

Themmadikkuzhi is a novel of faith, belonging, and the stubborn life of memory.

“Every soul down here is an untold story.”

— Vakka
