Thaths’ previous thread made me think: I would very much like to read at
least one translated book from each Indian language that has a written
literature.

Can you give me a list of books to read, along with the languages +
translated versions? Either fiction and non fiction will do.

I’ll start with three books I’m either reading or have yet to read:

Kannada: D R Nagraj’s essays translated ton English, *The Flaming Feet and
other essays,* and Listening to the Loom: Essays on Literature, Politics
and Violence

Tamil: *Poonachi or the story of a black goat* by Perumal Murugan

Sanskrit: *Dasakumaracharita or What ten young men did* by Dandin,
translated by Isabel Onians (clay Sanskrit library)
