About the Book
The Abyss (Ezhaam Ulagam) by Jeyamohan is a raw, powerful exploration of humanity’s darkest corners. Pothivelu Pandaram, a successful and devout man in his community, has built his fortune through an unethical trade—he owns a group of physically deformed beggars whom he exploits for profit by placing them outside temples. These beggars are no more than commodities to him, bought and sold like cattle, yet their lives are far from ordinary.
The novel takes an unexpected turn as it delves into the world of the beggars—the “abyss”—and allows the reader to experience their lives firsthand. Amidst the bitterness, suffering, and dehumanization, there is a raw tenderness and dark humor that shines through.
Adapted into the acclaimed 2009 film Naan Kadavul (I Am God), which won a National Film Award, The Abyss is one of Jeyamohan’s most celebrated works. Written with an unflinching eye and filled with deep existential questions, it presents an extraordinary narrative about human suffering, liberation, and the quest for meaning in life.
