If the seaweed broods over its loosened roots, it can never glide on a current.</em></p><p>So begins the bittersweet account of Kolumban, the man of the family, the player of the lute in his community of itinerant bards. The paanar live near forests, but do not know how to hunt. There are fields of millet behind their huts but they are unused to sowing or reaping. Tired of depending on song and dance to make a living, and the attendant poverty, the eldest son, Mayilan, runs away from home. Many years later his family sets out to find him. As they roam the land, they perform in village commons and palaces, to farmers and cowherds, and famous kings and even more famous poets.</p><p>Set seventeen centuries ago, <em>The Day the Earth Bloomed</em> tells the intertwined stories of Kolumban, his daughter Chithira and son Mayilan, drawing on the celebrated poems of classical Tamil.
