The Story and the Song was an engaging book, pairing an engrossing, thought-provoking narrative from author Manasi Subramaniam with colorful, eye-catching artwork from illustrator Ayswarya Sankaranarayanan. The importance of transmission, in any traditional body of lore, is highlighted in an unusual way here, as story and song are anthropomorphized, and invested with a sentience and agency of their own. This provokes the reader into considering what they owe to story and song themselves, and suggests the idea that it is only through being shared that such works can survive. There is much to ponder in the story here, just as there is a wealth of visual detail to peruse.
