Book Description
The three modern Indian plays brought together here are established classics, all written around the mid-1960s. Girish Karnad's Tughlaq was originally written in Kannada and explores the psyche of a medieval monarch. Evam Indrajit by Badal Sircar, originally written in Bengali, uses myth to examine some of the dilemmas of the Indian middle classes. Both of these plays are translated into English by Girish Karnad.
