Produced by Christine De Ryck and the PG Online Distributed Proofreaders. "Tales of Ind, and Other Poems" by T. Ramakrishna Pillai is a collection of poetry and narrative verse written in the late 19th century. The work explores themes rooted in Indian culture, mythology, and the human experience, with a particular focus on love, loss, and the trials faced by characters in times of adversity. The poems draw from rich Indian traditions and aim to resonate with both local and global audiences, blending Eastern and Western literary aesthetics. The opening of this collection introduces readers to a poignant tale titled "Seeta and Rama," set against the backdrop of an Indian famine and its devastating effects on a small village named Krishnapore. The story follows Seeta, the daughter of a beloved village teacher, and Rama, the son of a prosperous villager, as their idyllic life is shattered by hunger and despair. Seeta's journey takes her from the comforts of home to the hardships of begging and ultimately to a famine camp, where she grapples with her love for Rama amid the tragedy. This narrative rich in emotional depth sets the tone for the poems to follow, showcasing the author's ability to convey profound sentiments through vivid storytelling and lyrical expression.
