The Giant Crab And Other Tales From Old India

Lu par David Wales





This is the first collection by this author of charming folk tales from India. There is a second entitled The Talking Thrush (LibriVox audio here). Parents or those in loco parentis should be aware that as in all folk literature, in addition to humor and wisdom, here is some degree of suffering and death. These tales may not be suitable for the very young. (Summary by david wales) (2 hr 13 min)

Enjoyed this collection of Indian Fables. I always find it facinating and telling about a culture's attitudes and values through their stories. Well read.
