The Ramayana by Ramesh Menon
Still an integral part of India's cultural and religious expression, The Ramayana was originally composed by the Sanskrit poet Valmiki around 300 BC. Retold here by Ramesh Menon in modern prose, it concerns the exiled Prince Rama's struggle to rescue his wife from a demon and reclaim his thrown.
