Ep 10: The Gods made men
from Bookasur · host P.S. Nissim
Man made God in his own image - but then turned Him into something else, until a writer turned him and made Him a man again. In this episode, we speak about a Marathi bestseller that tells Krishna’s story in His own words. We then speak about an originally-in-Greek classic that brought Jesus Christ’s story back to the basics. This is episode #10 of Bookasur, talking about modern epics that retell older ones, a kid singing our National Anthem for fun, a tenuous connection to a politician, and silver cows. Books featured: Yugandhar, by Shivaji Sawant, published by Eka (Westland). The Last Temptation, by Nikos Kazantzakis, published by Faber. -------- Published 3rd June 2020.
