A sweeping tale of abduction, battle, and courtship played out in a universe of deities and demons, The Ramayana is familiar to virtually every Indian. Although the Sanskrit original was composed by Valmiki around the fourth century BC, poets have produced countless versions in different languages. Here, drawing on the work of an eleventh-century poet called Kamban, Narayan employs the skills of a master novelist to re-create the excitement he found in the original. A luminous saga made accessible to new generations of readers, The Ramayana can be enjoyed for its spiritual wisdom, or as a thrilling tale of ancient conflict.
The heroic story of Prince Rama is one of India's supreme epics, retold and translated by R.K. Narayan in this new version for modern readers.

reviewed The Ramayana: A Shortened Modern Prose Version of the Indian Epic on July 24, 2019 The Ramayana: A Shortened Modern Prose Version of the Indian Epic
This edition was published specially for Paper boat. This version of Ramayan by R.K. Narayan is excellent introduction to the Indian epic, specially for those who are short on time. Narayan has used Kamban's version for writing this and not Valmiki's version. Having read both versions, I could find one major difference- the laxman rekha, or line of protection drawn by Laxman is missing in this version. Overall a good quick and fascinating read
