Autorenporträt

Radhakrishnan is a traveller, storyteller and a seeker of stories. In a corporate career of four decades, he travelled all over India listening and accumulating stories. He loves to explore the similarities in the many versions found in the different regions of India and the lessons they teach even as they entertain. This book brings alive these stories from the folktales, epics and the songs that Indians have been telling or singing over the centuries. They bring to life an ageless, ancient and yet timeless India. Radhakrishnan now lives in the beautiful city of Cochin in the state of Kerala with his family.
