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


Because I'm so desperate to transform suddenly overnight into a great housekeeper, I might be overdoing it a bit. Honestly, how do people keep cleaning up as they work? It took me so long just to make a cup of coffee this morning because first I had to pull everything out from where I'd put it away, use it and put it back in again, then clean up spilled sugar and coffee, then rinse out cloth and lay to dry only to spill some milk. Uff. So much easier to be a slob. However, I rather like the view from our breakfast nook.
