Book on humorous Konkani plays
by J P Pereira


‘Natt Yangann’ is a collection of humorous one-act plays in Konkani, written by Brenda Menezes and published by Cindy Publications, Quepem through the sponsorship of Goa Konkani Academy. The book comprises of five plays, written in a simple yet delightful language that is normally used everyday.The first play titled ‘Eka Lognak Sotra Vidhna,’ narrates the tale of an elderly spinster who refuses all proposals
and when she finally accepts one, other hurdles crop up. ‘Aai Bhandavelean
Dhanvli’ is about a mother, her naughty kids and a ‘good for nothing’
husband. Frustrated at not being able to control the misdeeds of her family,
she contemplates suicide... In ‘Hantrun Polleun Paim Soddunk Zai,’ a poor
peon, in an office, is under great tension. His sister-in-law is getting
married, his children want new clothes, and his wife wants to buy an
expensive gift and he has no money! ‘Eleisanv’ tells about corrupt
politicians and the new candidates who also will become corrupt while the
last play, ‘Aplem Thoddem Chintchem Papia’ warns a retiring employee to save
the terminal benefits or face the consequences.

Written in the Devnagiri script by a lady who was weaned in Konkani from her childhood by her parents and uncles, especially a maternal uncle who won laurels for his poetry, the five plays make for great reading. Besides the humour that is present, there is also a message in each play. The book would be a great buy for
individuals and schools, which could perform the beautiful plays for variety
entertainment programmes and annual days.

With great support and encouragement from her husband, Walter Menezes, who is also a writer, Brenda will continue writing more plays. Maybe someday, the lady will write a full-fledged Konkani drama.

All the best to Brenda, keep on writing.
