DROPPING THE BOW:POEMS OF ANCIENT INDIA - POETRY ANTHOLOGY

RATING: B

A fairly short book that took me just two days to read. The poems I favor are on pages: 22, 25, 26, 30, 36, 49, 51, 65, 67, 71, 75, 81, 83, 84, and 89. Despite having been written several centuries ago, the words are simple to understand in comparison to such English works as Shakespeare or Chaucer. These poems still make sense today.

I would recommend the book to those wanting to sample some of the older dated poetry of India, Indian love poetry, or just have an easy read to open and relax the mind.
