Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book explores the significant role of animals in Hindu mythology, particularly through the Puranas. It recounts the stories of Kashyapa and his wives, each associated with different types of animals: swimming, flying, crawling, hooved, pawed, and those that defy classification. Featuring over 75 beautifully illustrated anecdotes, Devdutt Pattanaik delves into how these narratives reflect the relationship between humans and the animal kingdom, showcasing the imaginative ways our ancestors perceived these creatures.
