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


I guess you could say we've settled in. Olga's gone walkabout, boys are napping in the best spots and the work on the house is very nearly done (except for the sofa and the man making it has a whole list of excuses). We got our curtains put up today, chose spots for all our pictures, all my spare books are gone and I just have to find homes for clothes that don't fit. I can't remember a time when we DIDN'T have five zillion men in and out of the house and five zillion boxes to trip over but we're so close to the end now! Or so I keep telling myself. Finally back on the yoga mat today too. Progress. Home.
