SUN SEEDS

Books by NANDINI KARKY

Have you sat by a stream

lost in its flow over the pebbles

and then found your true self?

Have you looked into a campfire

watched the flames dance away

and seen stories of your life in the embers?

Sun Seeds makes boundaries between the inside and the outside, me and the other, dissolve.

It situates you in the stillness of now.

And, when the dark past threaten

Completing her certification in Subtitling from the Netherlands, she founded Subemy, a subtitling firm, which translates Tamil movies for English audiences. She believes that all forms of writing are, at the core, a form of translation, a way of capturing abstract inspirations and conveying it in the real language of the world. Nandini Karky lives and works in Chennai. Fuelled by her passion for nature and culture, she has travelled to all seven continents. When she’s not delighting in the laughter of African children or the walk of Antarctic penguins, she travels to the past to interpret two-thousand-year-old Tamil classical poetry for the twenty-first century, through her podcast Sangam Lit.
