The Rise Insight proudly extends its warmest congratulations to Dr. S. Perumal, author of Life Tilting Ten Topics – A Journey of Learning from Extraordinary Life Experiences, for being nominated for the TRI Literary Awards 2025 – Season 03. This distinguished nomination in the Poetry and Story category honors not only a debut literary work but a deeply personal journey of resilience, learning, and inspiration.
At the heart of Life Tilting Ten Topics lies the voice of a man who turned life’s most difficult trials into sources of wisdom and strength. Dr. Perumal’s story is not just told through the pages of his book, but lives within them. Coming from the modest town of Sholinghur, his evolution from a Tamil-medium student to a practicing physician and now a published author is an extraordinary testimony to human determination and the transformative power of education.
This book, though simple in its premise, is profound in its impact. It focuses on enhancing minds through vocabulary, showing readers the power of words in building not just language skills but life values. Each story captures real-life incidents that resonate deeply with the reader, highlighting the importance of motivation, moral values, and the beauty of lifelong learning. One of the book’s unique offerings is a heartfelt poem reflecting an imaginary yet vivid appreciation of nature’s beauty, blending poetic grace with personal insight.
The TRI Literary Awards committee was particularly moved by the authenticity and emotional honesty of Dr. Perumal’s writing. In a world that often celebrates polished language over heartfelt expression, this book stands out for its genuineness and the author’s relentless pursuit of growth. What makes this nomination truly special is the fact that Dr. Perumal, a self-taught learner of English, overcame his fears and insecurities to write a book in a language he once feared—a book that is now touching hearts across the country.
TRI recognizes Life Tilting Ten Topics as a beacon of hope for aspiring writers and readers from all walks of life, especially those from underrepresented and rural backgrounds. The committee applauds the author’s courage in sharing not just stories, but his lived experiences as a frontline COVID-19 medical warrior, a dedicated family man, and a lifelong student of knowledge. Dr. Perumal’s journey from a potter-lineage family to a recognized medical practitioner and now a nominated author reflects the values TRI aims to celebrate—perseverance, passion, and purpose.
Beyond the stories and vocabulary, this book is a tribute to the healing power of books, and the solace they offer during life’s most difficult phases. Dr. Perumal’s honest admission of how books became his medicine, how his small clinic space transformed into a mini-library, and how even his family adjusted to his love for reading—paints a truly touching portrait of a man whose heart is as large as his dreams.
We at The Rise Insight commend Dr. Perumal not just for this nomination, but for what he represents: the triumph of spirit, the joy of learning, and the power of storytelling to uplift and connect.
Congratulations once again, Dr. S. Perumal, on this incredible milestone. May your words continue to inspire and empower readers for generations to come.
