The books line up on my shelf like bright Bodhisattvas ready to take tough questions or keep quiet companyThey stake out a vast territory, with works from two millennia in multiple genres: aphorism, lyric, epic, theater, and romance. - Willis G. Regier (The Chronicle Review) No effort has been spared to make these little volumes as attractive as possible to readers: the paper is of high quality, the typesetting immaculate. The founders of the series are John and Jennifer Clay, and Sanskritists can only thank them for an initiative intended to make the classics of an ancient Indian language accessible to a modern international audience. (The Times Higher Education Supplement) Very few collections of Sanskrit deep enough for research are housed anywhere in North America. Now, twenty-five hundred years after the death of Shakyamuni Buddha, the ambitious Clay Sanskrit Library may remedy this state of affairs. (Tricycle) The Clay Sanskrit Library represents one of the most admirable publishing projects now afoot. . . . Anyone who loves the look and feel and heft of books will delight in these elegant little volumes. (New Criterion) Published in the geek-chic format. (BookForum)
