You’ve probably tried to speak in public a few times before. Maybe your heart started racing, you had difficulty breathing, or you forgot what you wanted to say. It sucks, right?
For years, speaking in public was the single thing I was most afraid of. Until I discovered the techniques you’re about to learn. In this book, you’ll master the techniques that have helped me overcome my fear of public speaking and feel excited to speak in public. They are the same techniques I used to prepare for my TEDx talk and that I taught in my workshops with companies including Google, Oracle, ASICS, Visa, Salesforce, Metlife, and E.ON.
Some of the exercises are a bit unconventional. Some are weird. But they’re also the most effective in helping you feel confident about speaking in public. So are you ready to overcome your anxiety and feel excited to speak in public?
Students Etched in Memory is a remarkable collection of forty essays by Perumal Murugan, translated with sensitivity and grace by V. Iswarya. While Murugan is widely acclaimed for his novels such as One Part Woman and Pyre, this collection reveals another facet of his work—as a teacher, mentor and keen observer of young minds.
In these deeply personal essays, Murugan offers an intimate look into the lives of college students from small-town Tamil Nadu. Each is a portrait of youth, where the pursuit of education becomes a journey not just of academic growth, but of self-discovery. Through his sharp yet compassionate observations, Murugan captures the delicate balance between the quest for knowledge and the search for identity, belonging and purpose.
With profound empathy for his students, Murugan recognizes that education is far more than textbooks and exams. Against the backdrop of contemporary India, the essays reflect the broader challenges facing students—pressures of family expectations, class, caste and the tension between tradition and modernity. Yet, they carry a sense of hope—of education as a pathway to change, upward mobility and the possibility of personal transformation.
Once again, Perumal Murugan demonstrates his mastery in capturing the lived experiences of individuals navigating the shifting currents of change.
