A striking feature of the ancient arts in India was their candid celebration of sexuality. The sacred and profane are a continuum in which spiritual and sensual values are integrated. The Kamasutra's view of sexuality is both jaunty and pragmatic, its analysis of sexual politics often chillingly realistic. This book brings you selections from Vatsyayana's text, with illustrations from private collections, many of them being reproduced here for the first time.
