The sufferings of the working class in India have largely remained

undocumented. The Malayalam novel 'Chuvanna Kaladikal'

narrates the struggles of workers in Kalady plantation and the

decisive intervention by AKG in their fight for existence and

justice. Though the lives of the working classes have become

the theme of many novels, this is the first novel based on the life

of plantation workers. It not only throws light on the sufferings

undergone by the workers, but reflects the energy imparted by

AKG's intervention. It shows his determination to save the

workers, even while his health was deteriorating.

The original book is a Malayalam novel written by C. R. Das.

Translated to English by Ajith Kumar. B and Edited by Shiny Ajit.
