Synopsis
This definitive volume is the first modern translation of Vatsyayana's Kama Sutra to include two essential commentaries: the Jayamangala of Yashodhara and the modern Hindi commentary by Devadatta Shastri. Alain Danilou spent four years comparing versions of the Kama Sutra in Sanskrit, Hindi, Bengali, and English, drawing on his intimate experience of India, to preserve the full explicitness of the original. I wanted to demystify India, he writes, to show that a period of great civilization, of high culture, is forcibly a period of great liberty., This definitive volume is the first modern translation of Vatsyayana's Kama Sutra to include two essential commentaries: the Jayamangala of Yashodhara and the modern Hindi commentary by Devadatta Shastri.

Greatly appreciate their flexibility with accepting my offers. Books condition, value and quality are all excellent. Seller assured cancelation and refund but had to contact back because they continued to process and NOT refund or cancel.Respuesta de vbbc2015- Votos a los que ha respondido el vendedor vbbc2015.- Votos a los que ha respondido el vendedor vbbc2015.I'm sorry, but there was no mention of a cancellation and refund. You were sent the five like new books at the prices we agreed to so this has got to be a mistake. Thanks and take care.Respuesta secundaria de i***k- Votos en los que el comprador ha dejado un comentario adicional.- Votos en los que el comprador ha dejado un comentario adicional.I apologize.

- r***a (412)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaCan’t leave negative feedback for this seller for some odd reason;Don’t like to leave a negative review nor wasn’t going to until seller insisted I do;He got all bent out of shape when I reminded him to ship card after 4 days of payment sent;Seller has wrong attitude;Blames everyone else including me for his carelessness;He says this happens all the time but still blames everyone else;DON’T SELL ON EBAY IF YOU CAN’T SHIP ON TIME & TREAT YOUR CUSTOMERS LIKE THIS!!Respuesta de vbbc2015- Votos a los que ha respondido el vendedor vbbc2015.- Votos a los que ha respondido el vendedor vbbc2015.Thank you for your kind words. Apparently, because you have a tendency to leave negative feedback and shred every seller on here, jordanseveryday, eBay has limited your ability to disparage sellers anymore. When you bought this card on 4/15 eBay gave you a delivery date of 4/24 (arriving early, by the way) so I have no clue why you are this angry. If you are a buyer looking to do business with us, please contact me for a copy of this buyer's messages and you will see true lunacy.
