Where Are You Going, You Monkeys? – Folktales from Tamil Nadu
The celebrated folklorist Ki. Rajanarayanan spent more than 80 years collecting the weirdest and wildest tales of the karisal mannu, the black-soil region around Kovilpatti, Tamil Nadu.
This book contains a gallery of jealous husbands and conniving goddesses, pious sparrows and randy mice, jewel-crazy girl ghosts and angry star demons, as well as a chapter of “naughty & dirty” folktales!

“…this delightful collection fully lives up to—enhances—Blaft’s young but confident standing” —Vijay Nambisan in the Deccan Herald.
