Description

The Mahabharata is one of the two major Sanskrit epics of ancient India. It narrates the struggle between two groups of cousins in the Kurukshetra War and the fates of the Kaurava and the Pandava princes and their successors.

Author

Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa is the sage to whom tradition ascribes the Mahabharata — the vast Sanskrit epic of the Bharata war, kinship, and dharma. He is also a character inside the poem, arranging the tale he is said to have composed. Four volumes here. Cousins at war, a dice game, a battlefield pause for the Gita: the work is a world, not a single plot.
