When I read Kakkanadan's works one after another while in the department in the early 80's my colleagues used to tease, asking me if I was researching in Kakkanadan.
In a way, I was: Babelinte(?) theerathu njangal irunnu, Orothaye orthappol njangal karanju... I was charmed with his style and ease of writing...
I just loved him; nay, love him. My heartfelt condolences! The gap he left in Malayalam is difficult to fill-

I have met kakkanadan with his family at the Bahrain airport just an year back.From his conversion with me, I learnt that, he is a good social human being with out any sort of artificiality. May his soul rest in peace.
