Product Description

All Najib wanted was to work in the Gulf and send money home. Driven by a ruthless and absurd series of events, Najeeb is forced to live a life of serfdom herding sheep in the middle of the Saudi desert. Memories of his village's lush green landscape and his beloved family haunt Najeeb, who finds solace only in the companionship of goats.


In the end, the young man hatches a dangerous plan to escape the desert prison. Aadu Jeevitham is a novel published in Malayalam and is on the bestseller list. Benjamin, one of Malayalam literature's most exciting new writers, satirically and tenderly narrates Najeeb's strange and tragic desert life, transforming it into a universal story of isolation and neglect.
