An Evening of K V Tirumalesh’s Poetry

An intimate evening with K.V. Tirumalesh’s poetry on cats, this gathering invites readers, listeners, and friends of the poet to come together in a shared space of memory and meaning. Through selected poems, personal recollections, and quiet conversation, we will explore how Tirumalesh wrote cats not merely as animals, but as witnesses, companions, and metaphors of everyday life.

Selected guests will share their experiences with the poet, respond to the poems, and reflect on what they feel Tirumalesh was reaching for—his humour, tenderness, distance, and affection—allowing the poetry to unfold through collective listening and conversation.

Please note: The event is in Kannada.
