About the book

When Bhima chances upon an ailing monkey blocking his path in the forest, little does he realize that he is meeting his brother Hanuman, one of the greatest heroes of his time, and Ram’s closest ally. As the brothers settle in for a night of exchanging stories and notes, Hanuman tells a surprising tale: of the great war between Ram and Ravan. In the twilit world of war, things are not what they seem … and this chance encounter between a warrior and a legend will destroy a myth.
 

Vikram Balagopal’s black-and-white, gritty reimagining of the Ramayana brings to life the scars-physical, moral and spiritual-borne by Hanuman, for his is a life full of questions that cut and gnaw at him, questions that have no answers unless history itself is replayed. Raw and inventive, Simian is a look back by one of the most enigmatic characters in mythology.
