Burdened by deathless memory, he pines for freedom while traversing successive worlds and epochs, deeply empathizing with the characters, bound in various shades of shackles that populate these sojourns. By the time he is born in a city in the present time, Kratu has dedicated himself to sprinkling joy and freedom from entrapment to people and personalities of all hues. As the story weaves together the successive births of Kratu, tales of wisdom, told masterfully through the medium of divinities and great seers, get knit into a unified whole of past, present and future, bringing alive the consciousness of a millennia of Indian tradition. Kratu, as an engaging novel, not only narrates a multitude of absorbing tales but goes beyond indeed, as Kratu, the pan-temporal traveller, embeds our psyche with priceless wisdom deeply imbued in the numerous streams coursing through the consciousness of India and its people." $c - back cover 500 $a "A novel"--Cover. 650 0 $a Indic fiction (English) 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240217011642.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=56419E9ACD6211EE9507C16149ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
