Book Description
The language of about five million Dogras, Dogri has a rich oral literature and folk tales form a substantial part of it. There are over seven hundred Dogri folk tales which have been collected and printed so far. This volume is the 1st attempt to bring out the English translation of some of these folk tales. The tales in this volume provide a peep into the 'backyard' of Dogra culture. Here gods and goddesses assume human forms and join human beings to drive home some important truth or moral lesson.
