TheMahabharata, together with the other great Sanskrit epic, theRamayana, embodies much of the cultural and religious heritage of India. Based on the narrative of the great war between the Kauravas and the Pandavas, it tells of warriors, kings, saints, and goddesses caught up in the romance and drama of family intrigue. With its diversity of plots and themes-including the philosophical teachings of theBhagavada Gita-theMahabharatahas entertained and influenced Indian audiences for nearly two thousand years. R. K. Narayan's abbreviated prose version provides a superb and elegant rendition of this great epic.Narayan, R. K. is the author of 'Mahabharata A Shortened Modern Prose Version of the Indian Epic', published 2000 under ISBN 9780226568225 and ISBN 0226568229.
