    About this audiobook

    Discover the endless fascination of Indian culture with five tales, selected for you for their power of evocation, wisdom and humor. The Alligator and the Jackal is a tale of wit and cleverness, about which will defeat the other. Singh Rajah and the Cunning Little Jackals is another example of how cleverness can overcome even the most powerful. The Farmer and the Money-Lender shows the eternal struggle between class, and a way to trick the tricker; Who Killed the Otter's Babies? will bring you deep reflections about causality and responsibility; and Tit for Tat is a powerful lesson about the dangers of habits.
