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

Starting a new life from scratch dot com aka my Very First IKEA visit. The sublet we're in is extremely IKEA so I've grown inured to the white plastic shine of the chest of drawers and know how uncomfortable the brown and white dining table chairs actually are. Plus as someone who has always furnished their house with second hand stuff, it felt too homogenous for my liking. But for your basic "I need exactly that and it doesn't have to have any personality" cupboard (or mattress, which is what we were looking for) it's perfectttt. I suspect I'll be back several times. Sadly no meatballs! The cafe closed while we were only halfway through. #minnaindeutschland #ikeatrip #berlinstories
