About the Author

Sudha Murthy is an Indian engineer, teacher, philanthropist and writer in Kannada and English. The tales in this collection, The Upside-Down King, surround the two most popular avatars of Lord Vishnu-Rama and Krishna-and their lineage. Countless stories about the two abound, yet most are simply disappearing from the hearts and minds of the present generation. Bestselling author Sudha Murty takes you on an arresting tour, all the while telling you of the days when demons and gods walked alongside humans, animals could talk and gods granted the most glorious boons to common people.
