Verhalen uit India von Hans van Buitenen
http://bintphotobooks.blogspot.com/2007/08/eppo-doeve-prisma.html
Collection of historic myths of ancient/medieval India. Generally a little dry, but offers the skeleton of good storytelling material. Also offers alot of background for understanding alot of other Indian art and architecture.
Absolutely yummy! One of my favorites, the stories are fun to read, yet still very Indian-feeling. Stories are also fairly secular and of varying lengths.
Amazing epic of India. Depicting the exile and eventual victory of the five Pandva brothers aided by Krishna. More absorbing than Homer's Illaid.
