In this contemporary version of the Ramayana for young readers, the author analyses 15 characters. She presents a range of human behaviour and offers insights into ethical questions. This new look at age-old characters opens alternate ways of seeing the traditional views of Rama, Sita, Ravana, Surpanakha and others.
