Beginning with Sri Aurobindo’s own Author’s Note on Savitri, some statements of the Mother on Savitri, and a note on how the poem developed over the years from 1916 to 1950, this concise handbook then very briefly summarises each canto of the entire epic. Compiled by Shraddhavan of Savitri Bhavan, the summaries are based on work by M.P. Pandit and members of the Gruppo Germoglio of Modena, Italy. The book concludes with an introductory reading list of reference works and studies by various authors.
