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


Same dress from my profile picture (which is the only time I've worn it before!) Didn't bring any clothes from Berlin because I want to make the most of my luggage allowance on the way back. But left a bunch of clothes with my mum and honestly, after an entire winter of layers and leggings and snoods, I'm happy to see anythingggggg that lets me have bare skin. Quite pleased with this dress though, worn to a party last night, shoes are my new Birkenstocks, which also I love but the cork sole takes a little getting used to before it stops being hard against your feet. That being said, I was standing for a large part of the evening and my feet feel fine this morning so hurrah for arch support! The pandemic made me realise I'm never even going to PRETEND to wear heels again. #whatiworetoday
