Synopsis

This book introduces a series of fables from ancient India, each of which carries a unique moral lesson. Written by an unknown author, these are some of the oldest fables of their kind, and were shared orally long before being first written down. The book is part of a wider collection of fables from the subcontinent, and is of particular interest both for its historical significance and the depth of its insights into morality and society. The text is written in a simple and clear style that makes its ideas accessible to readers of any age, while still offering depth. This book is a valuable and important text for students of history, literature, and philosophy and will be of significant interest to general readers too.
