The series OUR MYTHS draws upon timeless stories from
popular and marginal sources to gently question stereotypes
and rigid notions. Through pictures and words, the retold
stories encourage different ways of seeing and understanding.
They carry forward the spirit of oral storytelling and show
how myths change and still endure.

Valmiki has barely put his pen down after completing his magnificent
creation, the epic Ramayan, when he realises he has competition. The sage
Narad tells him that there is a better Ramuyan, written by Hanuman. Valmiki
is devastated! As the story of Hanuimans Ramayan unfolds, humorously and
gently, so does the idea that there is no one version of the well-loved story
about Ram, Sita, Hanuman and Ravan, but many. Here, the quirky
illustrations based on the style of Mithila folk paintings tell their own story.
