பிறர் மனதைப் புண்படுத்தாத ஹாஸ்யம், மாறாத தெய்வ பக்தி, மனதை உருக்கும் எழுத்து இவைகளை இனி எவரிடம் காண்போம்? ஆங்கிலக் கதைகளையே படித்துப் பழக்கப்பட்டவர்கள்கூட எஸ்.வி.வி., தேவன் எழுத்துக்களைப் படித்து ஆங்கில மோகத்தையே விட்டொழித்தனராம். தமிழை வளர்ப்பதாகக் கூறிக்கொண்டு, பல அபத்தங்களைச் செய்துவரும் இன்றை மாமனிதர்கள் இதைக் கவனிக்க வேண்டும்.
வருடங்கள் பல மறைந்தாலும், தேவனுடைய எழுத்துக்களும், இருப்பதில் தான் ஆச்சரியமா!
படித்துத்தான் பாருங்களேன்.
ກ່ຽວກັບຜູ້ຂຽນ
Devan was a competent and accomplished writer, who used several interesting and varied techniques in fiction writing. From travelogues to recipes, from detective stories to social dramas, he has written them all.
Devan was born in 1913 at Thiruvidaimarudur in Thanjavur district, Tamil Nadu, India, where he did his schooling. He came to Kumbakonam Government College to complete his B.A. degree. He worked as a school teacher for a year, before joining the popular Tamil weekly magazine, Ananda Vikatan in 1933. Devan's first foray into the world of writing was through the humorous short story "Mister Rajamani", written when he was in his twenties.
During this time, he wrote about 20 serials, more than 500 stories, articles and travelogues. A common feature in all his works was his gentle sense of humour. He was a very popular writer and stories abound of how, when a new issue of Ananda Vikatan came out, everyone in the family would fight to get hold of the copy first.

About ten of Devan's writings were also dramatised by several Tamil drama troupes, even during his lifetime. He himself wrote most of the dialogues for the plays. More recently, some of his works like Thuppariyum Sambu, Sriman Sudharsanam and Mister Vedhantham were made into television serials also. Only one of his novels, gOmathiyin kAdhalan, was made into a movie, starring T. R. Ramachandran and Savithri.
