Mahabharata, one of the greatest epics in the history of civilization, from multiple vantages:The inevitability of Kurukshetra warKunti's death and LakshagrahaThe sacrifice of Bheema's wife HidimbaThe perspective of foot soldiers and dasisKrishna's life experiences and their relation to his utterance of GeetaShalya, the uncle of Nakul and Sahadeva, siding with the KauravasThe rage of Rudravatar Ashwatthamaand many others......This book is a tribute to Krishna Dwaipayana Vyasa, the original one. This is just an interpretation of what he had created. This is just a footnote in the rich history of our civilization which is full of stories that continue to cast magic upon us.This is Mahabharata....Refreshingly different because it examines from multiple perspectives the motivations, obligations, dilemmas and feelings of characters as they are drawn into this internecine war- Ashok SootaA lot of grey than black and white...Heroes falter and villains triumph...one of the most insightful recollection of the past- A.S. SinghEx-Member SecretaryIndian Council of Historical Research (ICHR)Mahabharata is such a great narrative...recreating it with a contemporary facade is a huge challenge...The Myth of Hastinapur faces this challenge wonderfully well and turns it into a great reading - V.N.
