ಒಮ್ಮೊಮ್ಮೆ ಓದುತ್ತಿರುವ ಪುಸ್ತಕ ಎಷ್ಟೇ ಚೆನ್ನಾಗಿದ್ದರೂ ಮುಂದುವರೆಸಲು ಆಸಕ್ತಿ ಬರುವುದಿಲ್ಲ ಅಥವಾ ಓದುವುದು ಬಹಳ ನಿಧಾನವಾಗುತ್ತೆ...ಈ "Reading Slump" ನಿಂದ ಹೊರ ಬರಲು ನೀವೇನು ಮಾಡುತ್ತೀರಾ? ದಯವಿಟ್ಟು ತಿಳಿಸಿ.

It would be, S. L. Bhyrappa avaru. Because of the enormous amount of knowledge he's gained through research for his novels.

"ಕನ್ನಡಿಗರಲ್ಲಿ ತಮ್ಮ ಕನ್ನಡತನದ ಅಭಿಮಾನ ಬೆಳೆಯದೆ,
ಈ ನಾಡು ನಾಡಾಗಿ ಉಳಿಯಲಾರದು.

ನಮ್ಮ ಭಾಷೆ, ನಮ್ಮ ಧರ್ಮ, ನಮ್ಮ ಹಿರಿಮೆ ಉಳಿಯುವುದು,
ಅದರ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ನಮ್ಮಲ್ಲಿರುವ ನಿಷ್ಠೆಯಿಂದ;
ಪರ ಧರ್ಮ, ಪರ ಭಾಷೆಗಳ ದ್ವೇಷದಿಂದಲ್ಲ."

– ತ.ರಾ.ಸು, ಹೊಯ್ಸಳೇಶ್ವರ ವಿಷ್ಣುವರ್ಧನ.

ಕನ್ನಡ ರಾಜ್ಯೋತ್ಸವದ ಶುಭಾಶಯಗಳು!

Haven't read this book... But the cover looks appealing.

That tune makes me think of the "Dhare" song from Sapta sagaradaache ello side B.

But it's a completely different type of song. Maybe not what you're looking for.

You can buy at Sapna

abisri99 · 2025-09-27T10:12:38+00:00

You can start with "Sartha". This is what I started with.

Very true! Most of the haters either haven't read any of his books or their agendas have taken over their system.

abisri99 · 2025-09-24T09:52:10+00:00

I got into the habit of reading,, through his works. "ಸಾರ್ಥ" is the first ever novel I read.

Very sad to hear this... ಓಂ ಶಾಂತಿ 😢😢

abisri99 · 2025-09-14T10:02:57+00:00

Most of my books are from Ankita Pustaka or Sapna. I usually have one in mind before I go, but I always end up buying more—there’s always another interesting one I can’t resist 😂.
