The ten stories in Feathers, Fools, and Farts from Manipur, perched on India's border with Myanmar, are not for scaredy-cats. Nor for those of you who do not enjoy a hearty laugh or a good cry. And if you try to copy the foolishness of the characters, animal and human, in these folktales, you just might turn into a tiger, get stung by a swarm of bees, or even get poo'ed on.
