Alchemy of Creativity- Twelve Plays of Kuvempu

Kuvempu is the Himachala of Modern Kannada literature. Himachala is both tall and broad; likewise, it is divine as well as beautiful. It has innumerable faces, unnumbered levels and countless paths. Hence, it provides the devotees, renunciates, sages, connoisseurs, scientists and thinkers, different types of bliss and contentment and causes the evolution of the mind. It has its roots in the womb of the earth and its cupola is among the clouds. One cannot think of a better metaphor than this when one comtemplates on Kuvempu and his creations.
