"What makes this volume so special is its linking of Ramanujan's unique Indian American poetic sensibility and the seeming effortlessness of his well-known translations of classical Tamil poetry.... A valuable addition to any library.

Synopsis
A K Ramanujan has been recognized as one of the world's most profound scholars of South Asian language and culture.

The omnibus includes four volumes of his verse in English- The Striders, Relations, Second Sight, The Black Hen- as well as posthumous editions of his collected anduncollected poems. These are followed by his translations of ancient Tamil and medieval Kannada poetry. The love poems in The Interior Landscape, as well as Poems of Love and War, come from Tamil texts of thefirst three centuries AD. Hymns for the Drowning is a selection of poems by Nammalvar, the revered saint-poet of the ninth century, whose devotional hymns addressed to Visnu are among the earliest bhakti texts. The widely known vacanas in Speaking of Siva, by four major saints of the later b ha kt i R protest movement of the tenth century AD, have influenced writers, artists, dancers, and composers throughout the world. Also included in this collection is an interview by Chirantan Kulshresthaand an essay by A K Ramanujan on translating Tamil poetry, both of which add significantly to our understanding of the connectedness between the translations and his poems.

Seller offered companion item, which I accepted, and shipped them promptly together. There was no void space in box which can lead to crushing when stacked during the shipping process. That did not happen. Box was pristine! I cannot wait to see my daughter’s face when she opens this on Christmas Day!  Thank you!!!
