Feathers, Fools and Farts: Folktales from Manipur

By L Somi Roy

These ten wacky stories in Feathers, Fools, and Farts: Manipuri Folktales Retold from Manipur, perched on India's border with Myanmar, are not for scaredy-cats. Nor for those of you who do not enjoy a hearty laugh or a good cry. And if you try to copy the foolishness of the characters, animal and human, in these folktales, you just might turn into a tiger, get stung by a swarm of bees, or even get poo'ed on. If, however, you believe in strange romances, admire bravery, and like magic and sorcery, this book is for you, wherever you are.
