Book Description

About The Book

Madhurachenna (1903 - 1953), is a confluence of two names, viz., Madanna and Chennamallappa - which Chennamallappa of Halasangi (Bijapur Disctrict) chose as his nom de plume. And it releases sweet poetic "vibes" when one utters it.

"Madhurachenna" was an untutored genius, a many splendoured one at that. He was a mystical poet, a publicist of Kannada folk lore, a self-taught linguist, a researcher, a cultural activist, a social reformer a God-seeker above all, who has left behind a wonderous treasure - trove of a three-part autobiography.
