"The Ramakien is the Thai version of the most important myth of Southeast Asia--a myth that appears in varying forms in India, where it originated and is known as the Ramayana ... It is a story that closely parallels Western myths, such as those of the Iliad, recounting the struggle between the forces of good and evil, personified in the divine Phra Ram and the King of the Demons, Totsagan ... the central episodes of this story ... are depicted in the bas-reliefs of the temple of Wat Phra Jetubon in Bangkok ... it is a complete set of the rubbings (one hundred and fifty-two) of these bas-reliefs that is presented in this book"--Dustjacket.
