The Ascetic Of Desire

This novel is the story of the great sage Vatsyayan, author of Kamasutra, the definitive book on sex. The life of this Yogi who meditates on the life of the God of Love (Kamadeva) is memorably described in the book Kamayogi. Notings on feminine sexuality by Vatsyayan create upheavals in Kamayogi's readings, set against the socio-cultural, economic and historicla backdrop of the Gupta period in Indian history. A special creative work by Sudheer Kakkar. Trans: Suresh M G
