Loose Ends and Knots is a novel set in an alternate reality, unfolding against the tumultuous anti-Hindi protests that shook Tamil Nadu State in India. The narrative spans two eras: 1965 and 2005, and is told through a clear, engaging dialogue.
The protagonist, Subbaiah, is a university professor whose life becomes intertwined with the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam party, which resists the enforcement of Hindi as the sole national language, affecting 60% of India's populace. Tasked with mobilizing student demonstrations against the removal of English as an official language, Subbaiah finds himself in the heart of escalating violence that engulfs South India, prompting military intervention.
During this chaos, Subbaiah provides refuge to Moon, an injured foreign exchange student from Korea. As Moon recovers, he delves into the local culture and the complex caste system, spurred by his curiosity and conversations with Ganapathy, Subbaiah's Brahmin neighbor. Initially opposed to the anti-Hindi movement, Ganapathy's perspective gradually shifts.
As the civil unrest intensifies, Moon is hastily sent back to Korea.
Subbaiah's journey from a minor party member to a key figure in the liberation struggle is dramatic, culminating in the bifurcation of India into Dravida and Hindustan. Poised to become the first Finance Minister of the nascent Dravida nation, he is unexpectedly sidelined by a political adversary.
A decade post-independence, Subbaiah vanishes, sparking rumors of abduction by Hindustan agents or a possible defection.
Fast forward thirty years, Naga, Subbaiah's journalist son, welcomes Maya, a Korean online acquaintance and PhD candidate studying nations fractured by civil strife. While exploring Dravida's rich cultural heritage, they stumble upon Ganapathy, now a reclusive ex-professor, who seems to conceal a dark secret about Subbaiah's fate.
Determined to uncover the truth, Naga and Maya confront a revelation that shakes their very foundations.
