Produktbeschreibung
When a long-lost idol resurfaces in a New York auction house, a forgotten village in Tamil Nadu stirs awake. For decades, Thandanthottam has lived quietly. Its temples weathered, its Gods stolen, and its stories fading into silence. But when Adityan Iyer, a devout temple priest, stumbles upon an image of the village's missing Nataraja idol abroad, a ripple of memory and hope begins to spread. From dusty police stations to indifferent bureaucrats, from WhatsApp groups of scattered descendants to shadowy networks of idol smugglers, a quiet but determined search unfolds. Joined by Sharvani Shivashankar, a skeptical Mumbai journalist drawn into the heart of the mystery, Adityan embarks on a journey that spans continents, archives, and ancestral bonds. Uncovering a story of faith, loss, and the many ways a place can call you home long after you've left it. Rooted in real history and born of cultural longing, The Lost Dance of Thandanthottam is a moving novel about memory, reclamation, and the sacred spaces that endure. Within villages, and within us.
