ഇനിയും വരുമോ പൂക്കാലം ?
മലയാളത്തിന്റെ പൂക്കാലം?
രണ്ടായിരത്തി പത്തില് മലയാളി അസോസിയേഷന് തുടങ്ങി വച്ച കട്ടന് കാപ്പിയും കവിതയും എന്ന സംരംഭം ഒരു വര്ഷം പിന്നിടുകയാണ്.
മലയാള കവിതയും ചെറു കഥയും നാടകവും നോവലും ഒക്കെ ചര്ച്ച ചെയ്യപ്പെടുന്ന ഈ തുറന്ന വേദിയില്, നിങ്ങളുടെ രചനകളും സാഹിത്യ ചിന്തകളും അവതരിപ്പിക്കാം.
ഇത് മലയാളത്തിന്റെ പൂക്കാലമാണ്. ജീവിത ഗന്ധിയായ മലയാള കൃതികളും, അതിന്റെ സൃഷ്ടി കര്ത്താക്കളും, നിങ്ങളുടെ സൌഹൃദം തേടുകയാണ്. ചൂടുള്ള കട്ടന് കാപ്പി മൊത്തി ക്കുടിച്ചു കൊണ്ട്, സൌഹൃദം പങ്കിടാന് എല്ലാ രണ്ടാം ശനി യാഴ്ചയും കേരളാ ഹൌസില് ഏഴു മണിക്ക് എത്തി ചേരുക. ഓര്ക്കുക, കട്ടന് കാപ്പിയും കവിതയും മലയാള ത്തിന്റെ വസന്ത കാലമാണ്.
Due to unforeseen circumstances Malayalee Associaton of UK (MAUK) has postponed Kalolsavam 2012 that was scheduled to take place on 28th January 2012 to April. We are very sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
| 'Kattankappy' is moving home |
|
 |
Malayalam literary evening is scheduled to be conducted at Sree Narayana Guru Mission, London E6 3BP on Saturday 14, January 2012 at 7pm. Thanks SNGM for offering free meeting facility. The special event will be a tribute to 'Kakkanadan', the late Malayalam short story writer. Manamboor Suresh and Sugathan will be talking about ‘Ushna meghala’ and ‘Kadalinte Moham’ respectively. |
|
This is the beginning of a process to organise the event at various locations across the country. Where ever Malayalee groups interested in organising the event come forward, MAUK will make it happen as it believes that Malayalam language (literature) is the default common ground for every Malayalee to participate and interact. Relying heavily on the recent findings that a deeper understanding of one’s language, culture and history will help them understand other communities better and this can result in easy integration with other communities around, MAUK is taking this bold step.

Started with a short story by Kamala Das, poets like Ayyappa Panicker, G Sankara Kurup, ONV, Melpathoor Naarayana Bhattathiri and Madhusoodanan Nair were introduced through their poetry. Brief discussions about the life and works of these literary figures gave insight into unknown territories of Malayalam literature to many of the participants. Some participants came forward with their own works. An instant music feast performed by the participants, added sweetness to the whole event. Participants unanimously decided to organise “Kattan Kaappiyum Kavithayum” on second Fridays of every month between 7pm & 9pm. |
