Where are You Going, You Monkeys?

This is a collection of fun, imaginative, and sometimes quite racy folktales from South India. Ki. Rajanarayanan has spent three-quarters of a century collecting the weirdest and wildest tales from the karisal mannu, the scorched, drought-stricken land of Tamil Nadu. This colourful and often hilarious collection includes a gallery of conniving goddesses and jealous husbands, pious sparrows and randy mice, jewel-crazy girl ghosts and angry star demons.
