I think I am looking forward to the last day of school more than my baby bassets. I am thrilled right now that I do not have to worry about homework, spelling tests or crazy math that you spend more time answering why you came up with that answer and not just solving the problem. This new form of math they came up with has driven me to eating at least two cakes a week. Ten bucks says this summer I will lose thirty pounds just because I won’t be stress eating. I was never a big fan of school growing up, and did everything in my power to get out of it, so you can imagine how hard it is for me to push my own baby bassets to do good in school. They did great with their perfect attendance, awesome grades and athletic awards. All achievements I was never accused of getting when I was growing up. Thank golly the apple fell far from this crazy tree. Now though I can relax with only three days left of school. I think I am finally off duty for the summer, and at this point I couldn’t care less if they went to school in their pajamas and with unbrushed teeth.

Early Indications

If children grew up according to early indications, we should have nothing but geniuses.’ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Madras, December 26, 2004. Shiva has a miraculous escape from the tsunami. Twenty years before, a friend saved him from almost certain death – whose debt he was reluctant to acknowledge. Coimbatore, South India, 1969. It all began, most probably, because Shiva and his four classmates – all kindergarten students – were christened ‘the Five Geniuses’ by an old woman who was their doting first teacher. She does not stop with that simple declaration but, by careful personality divination, gives them their callings. Shiva would become a research scholar or a professor since he has a silver tongue and a prodigious intellect. Dorai with his abiding curiosity for automobiles would have something to do with cars; maybe he would invent a new one. Basketball is the future of Rohit who manages to score from the vaunted zero position. A droll couplet by Kani convinces the teacher that he is a future poet. Sarita’s full-throated rendering of ‘Doe, a deer’ makes it clear that she is destined for musical stardom. For different reasons, the Five Geniuses join the local engineering college for an undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering. Soon the interplay between incidents traps them inextricably in a whirlpool. Innocent utterances can change lives. How would their lives have turned out if they hadn’t been called the Five Geniuses? Were they geniuses or did they so believe because a set of accidental circumstances conspired to create the impression? These thoughts bother Shiva in his post-Coimbatore existence in Madras. After being providentially spared by the tsunami, almost twenty years after he left Coimbatore, he decides to visit it to check what became of the past with which he severed connections. Early Indications is a haunting tale of friendship, oppression, disaffection, betrayal, guilt, false dawns, and the impossibility of redemption. It is about confronting the infinite shades of gray we are painted in, and wondering how much semi-serious pronouncements can shape the spectrum. The novel showcases the subterranean poetic charm of Coimbatore, which lies midway between the teeming metropolises and the overwrought village settings.
