The Mistress- Anitha Nair




In Mistress, Anitha Nair narrates a rich lady's fickleness and her desire to get true love as she was trapped in a loveless marriage and the resulting controversies.
I like Anitha nair's style of writing. After reading her story, "The Better Man", I was an ardent fan of hers, thirsty to read more, just because she used the exact translations of Malayalam thoughts in English. I felt like I was reading some great Malayalam novel itself. She narrated Kerala and its nature and life in the village all so vividly that I could not enjoy even a real Malayalam novel with such a longing.
