Little India

Matt Forsythe | April 11th, 2005

Little India is the criminally cute new book by Sanjay Patel which is, as he describes it, the ‘perfect guide to Hindu mythology’ with illustrations of all the popular deities, from Brahma to Varaha.

Don’t forget to check out his beautiful concept sketches while you’re there.

  • That's adorable! I want one for EVERY religon. :) Even the little beach surfing religons they made up so that people can go surfing on Sunday too. :)
  • I love this.
  • This was my favourite book that i picked up at APE last weekend. We were actually joking with Sanjay that he SHOULD do this with every religion, but I guess the problem with the monotheistic religions is that there would only be ONE page in the book...
  • That stuff is fun, and even the monotheistic religions have a lot of other important (nongodly) figures to include. If that fails, there's always Greek gods! I loved the sketches.

    Speaking of sketches, anyone interested in joining my Flickr 'Sketchbook' group? I'm surprised that there isn't one up and going already. http://www.flickr.com/groups/sketchbook/
  • oh yeah .... X)
    Sanjay is the man ...

    I love this book. I would pay this gent to do one for Norse mythos, i.e. Thor, Loki, Balder, Odin etc.. Greek would also be great. I'll be picking this book up soon.

    Sanjay,
    I am terribly dissapointed that I ordered your book online - nothing came.
    I sent you several emails and have gotten no reply from you either.

    I reaaly really want to buy a couple of books but I am so let down by your customer service!
    Isnt the point of publishing a book, that people buy them?
