From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kuzhali Manickavel (Tamil: குழலி மாணிக்கவேல்) is an Indian writer who writes in English. She was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada and moved to Chidambaram, Tamil Nadu, India when she was thirteen. She currently lives in Bengaluru, Karnataka. Her first book, Insects Are Just Like You And Me Except Some Of Them Have Wings was published by Blaft Publications in 2008. The Guardian named the book as one of the best independently published ebooks in the weird fiction genre, calling it "just very, very beautiful."[1] Her second collection, Things We Found During the Autopsy, was also published by Blaft in 2014. Both collections were listed in India Today's A Decade in Books as "...whimsical, maddening and in some places, intensely beautiful."[2]
