Book Synopsis
For over a century, Abanindranath Tagore's Raj Kahini has been among the most beloved works of Bangla literature. Mixing history and mythology with an extraordinary visual imagination, it tells the tales of the Suryavamsha the Sun Dynasty that ruled Mewar. Here we meet Shiladitya, child of the Sun God; Bappaditya, who builds an empire that stretches up to Persia; Hambir, the cheeky teenager who reclaims the throne of Mewar. We meet Padmini, the princess from Sri Lanka who becomes a goddess; Mirabai, who renounces her kingdom to be with her child-god, Nandalala. On every page, we are exposed to emotions that define the human condition love, sacrifice, jealousy, courage, greed and treachery. Honour and loyalty clash with villainy and evil, and the better side does not always win.
