Book Description
It is with utmost pleasure that I present our latest book, titled "What is Kathakali?"
As people, we have always had an inherent fascination for colours: the blue of the peacock, the red of the hibiscus, the white of fresh snow, and the green of the Kathakali hero the Paccha Vesham. But what lies behind this glorious green? This title presents Kathakali to you in all its colours.
At Skanda, we have always been committed to bringing our classical arts close to our readers. To have the opportunity to study this elegant art in all its splendour was truly a delight.
The book has been divided into two parts. The first, "The Splendour of Kathakali', takes the reader through all of the form's salient aspects, in an easy-to-understand yet thorough manner. The second, "Kathakali and Other Performing Arts, as its name suggests, takes you on a journey of comparative understanding.
I hope you enjoy this book, which, in every sense of the word, is a collector's piece.
