"The Kathasaritsagara is a combination of simultaneously innocent and sophisticated folk stories bringing forth both common sense and highly sophisticated Sanskrit writing. It paints a vivid picture of a most particular part of India at one moment in history, and yet it tells stories that are the Indian variants - often the Indian sources - of stories told around the world. Arisha Sattar's translations bring these stories to life in a modern way, while retaining their ancient meanings"-- Provided by publisher.
