Book Synopsis The Ocean of the Rivers of Story, Volume One by : Somadeva Bhaṭṭa
Book excerpt: The name of Soma·deva's eleventh-century Ocean of the Rivers of Stories is no boast: in more than 20,000 verses it tells more than 250 tales. The reader has only to enjoy being swept away in the flood of stories, said to spring from that source of so much classical Indian literature, "The Long Story"--Publisher description.
