Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, set in the Mahabharata period of ancient India, is a compelling lyrical drama that explores the transformative power of love and the fluidity of gender roles. The author, drawing from their Indian heritage, retells the tale of Arjuna, a prince forced to confront his warrior's vow of celibacy and the ramifications of his profound and sudden connection with Chitra, a princess who has been raised as a man. As their love story unfolds, the tale delves into the complex nature of desire, duty, and the quest for personal fulfillment. The book examines the traditional frameworks of gender expectations, challenging societal norms, and opening up a dialogue on the complexities of identity. This powerful and moving narrative offers profound insights into the human condition, its capacity for love, and the sacrifices we make in the name of both love and duty.
