2.RamayanaRamayana
from University of California Press
Price: $15.61

Customer Review:
I wanted to read a copy of the Ramayana for a long time now, even though I was already told and was familiar with many of the stories from my parents. I am a Hindu, and was looking forward to read this.
However, I had to stop on page 16 or so. It provided descriptions of Rama being born with... more info

3.The Tale of Genji (Penguin Classics)The Tale of Genji (Penguin Classics)
from Viking Adult

Customer Review:
I had to read this book for class. It wasn't that good. Conversations get confusing because its not clear who is saying what. It might be a small book but its tedious reading. I'm usually a fast reader but it took me a couple of days just to get through 3 chapters. I asked around at class and found... more info

from Shambhala
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
This translation of the classic Chinese novel is not nearly as good as the previous Arthur Waley edition, also available from Amazon. This edition has the adventage of being greatly simplified, and therefore may be more suitable for young readers. Fans of the Waley edition might also be interested... more info

Since Bulfinch, Campbell has long been the storyteller of myth and culture, sharing insights on themes of origin and eternity.

7.MahabharataMahabharata
from University of California Press
Price: $14.93

Customer Review:
William Buck's retelling of the world's greatest (and longest) epic is beautiful and moving to read, but it is not really the Mahabharata. He can be forgiven for leaving out a great deal, and he did well to take some of the independent stories from the very long first part of the original and... more info

Customer Review:
I learned some interesting things about Japanese history and culture. In addition to ghost stories this book contains Japanese proverbs and poetry. The author offers a lot of explanations for his western audience. One thing that surprised me was that most of these are intertwined with the Buddhist... more info

9.Discourse By Three Drunkards On GovernmentDiscourse By Three Drunkards On Government
from Weatherhill
Price: $13.22

Customer Review:
Again overpriced foreign book. I had to read it for a class. It's interesting but I wonder if the short discourse on politics is worth the money I paid for it. If this is not required for a class I would recommend getting another book.

from Princeton University Press
Price: $16.29

Customer Review:
Zimmer was one of the world's foremost Indiologists. His insights in translating the Indian symbols and myths into a format that is easily understood, if not fully comprehended, by the Western mind is a great treasure. This book is a must read if you have interest in this topic, and should be an... more info
