Though stylistically divergent, they share a common plot: the hero is an inept, bungling procurer, who mismanages his client's love-affairs to an unexpectedly successful completion. A wide spectrum of India's urban society is scandalized, from respected judges to clumsy poetasters, from hypocritical Buddhist monks to greedy madams, from spoiled scions of wealthy houses to criminal low-life.\u003cbr\u003eCo-published by New York University Press and the JJC Foundation\u003cbr\u003eFor more on this title and other titles in the Clay Sanskrit series, please visit http: \/\/www.claysanskritlibrary.org\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Shyamilaka, Vara-Ruchi, Shudraka\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0814719783\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780814719787\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Clay Sanskrit\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 508\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.40h x 4.40w x 1.00d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shyamilaka","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43947315888383,"sku":"9780814719787","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_92a73344-e1f0-493c-89de-bb772d522b27.jpg?v=1681517994","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-quartet-of-causeries-shyamilaka-9780814719787","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
