My latest book is The One Who Swam With The Fishes.

"A mesmerizing account of the well-known story of Matsyagandha ... and her transformation from fisherman’s daughter to Satyavati, Santanu’s royal consort and the Mother/Progenitor of the Kuru clan." - Hindustan Times

"Themes of fate, morality and power overlay a subtle and essential feminism to make this lyrical book a must-read. If this is Madhavan’s first book in the Girls from the Mahabharata series, there is much to look forward to in the months to come." - Open Magazine

"A gleeful dollop of Blytonian magic ... Reddy Madhavan is also able to tackle some fairly sensitive subjects such as identity, the love of and karmic ties with parents, adoption, the first sexual encounter, loneliness, and my favourite, feminist rage." - Scroll

Today in Photo


A museum day yesterday which ended at well past my bedtime because summer is so short and goes by so quickly and we want all of it, all of it, greedily even if it means aching legs and falling into bed for eleven hours. We saw quite a good thing on Gauguin where the second photo is from talking about how the Tahitians see him (a creep and a weirdo). All thanks to the museum passes we bought last year so can slip into most for free. #berlinna #museumsofberlin
