Blurb:
'I knew there was nothing poetic about death. I knew not that the most horrific battles are fought off the battlefield.'
Arjun: The idealist in a non-ideal world, the warrior whose deadliest opponent was his conscience. History forgot his voice, but misquoted his silence.
'My self esteem originates from me and ends in me. Why does your honor depend on me? Find your own.'
Draupadi: The untamed tigress, the fragrant flame, the unbridled spirit.
'Power does not justify sin. Power is not virtue. Virtue is that which lasts in spite of power.'
Krishn: The enigma whose unique ideology churned the battlefield into a quest for truth.
The Missile... The Trajectory... The Vision...
The trio that makes for the core of the Mahabharata.
This is their saga. Insightful, visceral and candid.
Review:
Something different from the pot for me. Mythological book, my first mythological book it was. And as it was my first, it made me read every incidence twice. Obviously, the one who doesn't know much about history, will get a problem in reading this book. But yes, Google is always there for us. The book is told from both the perspective: Arjuna and Draupadi. One should have some knowledge of Mahabharata to make your read, an awesome one. It is a story of Arjuna who fought many battle, Draupadi who was duty and dharama bounded. It is a never ending tale and author has done marvelous stuff in keeping it to 280 pages. Title and cover of the book is apt and blurb defines the book very well. Language of the book was really good, it made me feel every feeling. There are one liners which intact me. There were hardly any grammatical mistakes in the book. I like the character of Krishn, who was truly a supporter to them. Ending could have been much better than this.
I Like-
1) Book Quality & the cover.
2) No Grammatical Errors.
3) I also like Krishn as a guide, friend of them.
I Dislike-
1) It is not easy for the one who knows nothing about Mahabharata (like me).
I thank Authors' Paradise (Tushti Bhatia) for recommending this book to me and making my debut in mythology. Many congratulations to the author for coming up with such a nice project. I would like to recommend this book to all those readers, who like mythology and Mahabharata.
