The Indian Epics Retold: The Ramayana, The Mahabharata, Gods, Demons, And Others

The Indian Epics Retold: The Ramayana, The Mahabharata, Gods, Demons, And Others

R.K. Narayan
3.9/5 ( ratings)
One of India's finest novelists retells the two great Indian epics as well as some well-known tales from Hindu mythology and folklore. While the eleventh century Tamil poet Kamban's version inspires his Ramayana, Narayan's Mahabharata is based on Vyasa's monumental work. In Gods, Demons and Others, he includes stories from Kalidasa's Sanskrit classic Abhijnana Shakuntalam, the Tamil epic Silappadikaram, the Shiv Purana and the Devi Bhagwatam.
