Paperback. Condition: Good. An Ancient Collection Reimagined Composed around the Buddha's lifetime, the Therigatha (Verses of the Elder Nuns) contains the poems of the first Buddhist women: princesses and courtesans, tired wives of arranged marriages and the desperately in love, those born into limitless wealth and those born with nothing at all.
