Book excerpt: Light from the fire burning afar mingled with the moonlight in Kurukshetra to create a terrible twilight. Scattered corpses ... broken chariots ... sporadic death cries ... prowling scavengers ... the battlefield stretched endlessly.The victorious Pāndava camps burst into deafening cheers amidst burning funeral pyres. The Great War was finally over. But soon enough, when everyone learns the truth about the hated enemy, Karna, that towering figure with the golden glow, another battle starts. Everyone stands stunned, forgetting to even cry. Torn by the guilt of fratricide, Yudhishtira becomes a recluse. Draupadi becomes restless: her tryst with reality begins. What seemed a justifiable end to an ignominious character completely overturns. Her pride for her husbands’ valour erodes. Life as she had understood slowly begins to lose meaning. This Malayalam classic centres on Karna, the most criticized yet admired character of the Mahabharata, treacherously killed by his half-brother Arjuna. His life story unfolds through the eyes of Draupadi, in flashbacks and tales she hears from those around her in the aftermath of the battle of Kurukshetra.

Book excerpt: It is the tenth night of the great war between the Pandavas and Kauravas. Bhishma, the venerable patriarch of the families, lies fatally wounded on the plains of Kurukshetra. On his deathbed he offers Radheya, his nemesis, a chance to rule the Kuru kingdom by capturing Yudhishthira. In the Pandava camp, Yudhishthira, a reluctant warrior, tries desperately to hold his allies together and escape capture without appearing to be a coward. Meanwhile, his young and impulsive nephew, Abhimanyu, a warrior prince, dreams of glory and yearns for a chance to save the Pandava cause. The lives of these three warriors, Yudhisthira, Radheya and Abhimanyu, collide brutally on the thirteenth day. A story of how stories are created, how fact becomes fiction, how history becomes mythology and how men become legends, The Thirteenth Day re-imagines India's greatest epic like never before.

Book Synopsis The Battlefield of Kurukshetr by : Ashok Sinha

Download or read book The Battlefield of Kurukshetr written by Ashok Sinha. This book was released on 2010-07. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the time of the Dwapar Yuga (epoch) marked by the Krishna Avatar (Incarnation), some 5,000 years ago, the Mahabharata War has just ended. The great Indian battle between the Pandavas and the Kauravas, cousins by relation, was driven into a nationwide war because of the selfish and arrogant disposition of Duryodhan, eldest of the Kaurava brothers. Bhisma, the great sire of the two warring parties, is laying in the battlefield, wounded by hundreds of arrows shot by Arjuna, one of the Pandava brothers. The Pandavas have won the war, but Yudhishthir, the eldest Pandava brother, is grieving due to the great human tragedy. He goes to Bhisma (at Kurukshetra, near modern-day New Delhi), seeking solace from the wise Bhishma, his great grand uncle. The Battlefield Kurukshetra book is fundamentally a dialogue between Bhishma and Yudhishthir about the origin and effect of wars, and possible ways to prevent them. It is a verse translation of the Hindi poetic work (Kurukshetra) by the eminent Hindi poet Ramdhari Singh Dinakar, regarded as the national poet of India. While the context is ancient and Indian, the subject is universal and timeless. Readers of any age and cultural background will find a reflection of this theme in their own time and place. The book's message is as relevant in today's world as in India 5,000 years ago. Author Ashok Sinha has written 15 books of poetry, plays, and translations in Hindi and in English for over 50 years. Raised in the state of Bihar in India, he now lives in Ypsilanti, Mich Publisher's website: http: //www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/TheBattlefield Kurukshetra.html
