Product Description
Krishna Deva Raya is the story of the legendary 16th century king of Vijayanagara (Hampi). It is narrated through the delightful voices of the king's imagined daughter and great-granddaughter. The narrative's playful, personal tone and charming conversation between child and grandmother is spliced with humourous ruminations of Krishna Deva Raya himself, giving the story a more wholesome, 3-dimensional feel. The evocative text, its stunning illustrations based on the temple art of Lepakshi, the map and the timeline, together bring alive the legendary monarch and his citadel, Hampi, and the time and place he occupied in Indian history
