Corruption in government, hypocrisy in religion, avaricious greed in business: these are some of the targets of Kshemendra s one-thousand-year-old satires.

Written by a celebrated name in classical Sanskrit literature, these little known exposés of fourteenth-century society find resonance in the Indian subcontinent even today.
