About the Book:
"A Compilation of Love Stories and Poems from Classical Literature and Folklore of India" is a captivating collection of stories and lyrics that span the depth of Indian classical literature and folklore. The tales are set in regions renowned for their natural beauty, where the god of love, Kamadeva, makes his presence felt, choosing his victims with ease.
The collection includes well-known works, like Kalidasa’s Meghadutam and Ilango Adigal’s Shilappadikaram, as well as lesser-known gems by ancient Indian poets like Damodaragupta, Janna, and Amaru. These works delve into the myriad facets of love, from the passionate and sensuous to the tender and playful.
In addition, the book features stories of Hindu gods and goddesses in love and retellings of folk tales from regions like Kashmir, Punjab, Maharashtra, and Rajasthan, beautifully encapsulating the diversity and richness of Indian culture. A celebration of romance, tenderness, and sensuality, this collection is sure to appeal to every romantic soul.
