Title : The Mahabharata - Jean-Claude Carrière - book

Summary :

An immense epic poem in the crucible of which the imagination and culture of India were forged, the Mahabharata is the outsize of the subcontinent. For many Westerners, it is an unassimilable work because it is too complex, too abundant, too strange. This is why the play produced by Peter Brook for the 1985 Avignon Festival was immediately perceived as a major event in the contemporary history of theater. The phenomenal success of this creation owed much to Jean-Claude Carrière's text. With exemplary clarity, it brings to life the cosmic struggle between the Kauravas and the Pandavas, involving the worlds of demons and gods, and takes us to the heart of Indian mythology. Long out of print, this contemporary classic of the stage is finally being returned to its audience.
