Kalki
Just stumbled across a blog by Pavithra translating Amarar Kalki's Sivagamiyin Sabadham into English.
If you want to understand what being a Tamilian means, then Kalki is the beginning, the middle and the end of your quest.
Sensational is probably a word that comes close in describing the quality of the translation. I've read the original, and this comes very, very close to it in terms of capturing the flavour and essence of the masterpiece. Truly a magnificent effort. Hats off!

Hi Venkat...
Thanks so much for your kind comments. Feedback like this makes my day, and spurs me on in continuing with it. Thanks for the link - and I hope you'll continue to vist and comment. :)
Hi Pavithra,
You're welcome!
And oh yes, I definitely will continue to visit. Looks like I have a huge backlog of reading here!:)
Should keep me occupied till my classes begin.
Cheers,
An excellent work in translation indeed. I remember my mother reading it out in the original to me when I was young. Didn't understand one whit then. Pavithra's translation brings back forgotten memories.
(Hmm, by the way, this is Ramesh (the guy who asked you the two questions to which you answered in the affirmative... heh)--I couldn't locate your email address, hence resorting to the comment system. I've moved into IIMB, Room F-104, Hostel Block F. I was just wondering whereabouts you are at. I can be reached at ramesh (dot) n (at) gmail (dot) com; or at nine-eight-eight-six-eight-five-four-four-eight-five. And btw, what *is* your email address?)
ramesh,
my email address is in the database in the egroups. in any case have dropped you an email.
cheers,
Great link Venk@. If there is one thing I regret to this day, it is my poor tamil reading skill. It is just my fault that I did not put enough concentration on that. Have always wanted to read Sivakamiyin Sabatham and this gives a great opportunity to do that.
Couldn't comment on Pavithra's blog as it allows only comments by people with blogger accounts. Great work by her.
I've been reading it for quite sometime now. Very interesting indeed...Excellent effort.!
Raman,
Don't let that dissuade you. I started learning Tamil in the eighth, when my mother taught me the alphabet! I haven't had any schooling in it whatsoever. And if I can read Tamil (to a fairly reasonable extent), so can you :). Now you have an English translation to verify if you actually read that bizzarre Tamil world correctly :-)!
Narayanan,
Vaanga sir! Welcome back! Trust everything went off well.
