Malayalam stories and essays

A Malayalam blog for stories, essays, and Kerala notes

Original writing in Malayalam for readers across Kerala, with occasional vlog links when a subject calls for sound and movement.

What you will find

Stories, essays, and companion vlogs

Three ways the writing reaches its readers.

Fiction

Original stories

Short narratives drawn from the everyday textures, memories, and rhythms of life in Kerala, written in Malayalam.

Reflection

Longform essays

Reflective pieces on contemporary culture, literature, and quiet observations that need more room than a short post allows.

Video

Vlog links

When a subject calls for movement and sound, the companion vlog is shared alongside the writing.

Why Malayalam

Writing in Malayalam keeps these stories close to the people who recognise the veranda, the monsoon, and the language in which they were first remembered.— rosadalangal
