Opis

The title of this book comes from the African proverb - "until the lions have their own historians, the history of the hunt will always glorify the hunter." In this poetic reimagining, Nair writes, for the first time, the history of the women in the Mahabharata, the longest poem ever written and one of the two major Sanskrit epics of ancient India.
