Inhaltsangabe

The Kumarasambhava of Kalidasa, probably composed about A.D. 400, is the greatest long poem in classical Sanskrit. The love story of the God and Goddess Shiva and Parvati, who are both lovers and cosmic principles, the poem is a paradigm of the union between male and female played out on the immense scale of supreme divinity.

Aus dem Klappentext

"This remarkable translation of a previously inaccessible text holds its active authority as poetry throughout, never relaxing into simply prosaic patterns nor the all too usual paraphrase. Hank Heifetz has managed a compelling unity of resources, which I consider an exceptional literary accomplishment."Robert Creeley, SUNY, Buffalo
