About this book
A Holi powder trick sets a prince’s troubles in motion, and borrowed clothes carry the danger from palace to market. When the washerman is seized, fear makes him betray the prince. Elsewhere, Puran escapes a locked palace as he prays, while Indar’s throne trembles and God sets him safely on the earth. Punjabi verse appears beside English translation, keeping the collection’s oral storytelling in view.
