I have been reading with interest Ramsay Wood's new novel which is a companion piece to his earlier Kalila and Dimna. This one, modestly called Kalila and Dimna Volume 2, takes a similar format- using traditional tales associated with the Hindu and Arab storytelling tradtions and reworking them into a modern novelistic construction. This is the weft so to speak, the weave is Ramsay Wood's own unique insights, quirky humour, whacky nomenclature and unpredictability. It now seems to be out on kindle which makes it very easy to get hold of.
