Description
Borrowing from Sanghadasa's Jaina version of the Ramayana, Mandodari-one of the least known characters of the Hindu epic-is finally given a voice. Considered to be one of the most beautiful apsaras, she was married off to the mighty Ravana, the legendary king of Lanka. In her story, she speaks about her struggles after her marriage, her insecurities and her pious nature that challenged her husband's growing aspirations. She narrates the rise of Ravana's power and the blunders he made that ultimately caused the downfall of Lanka. Despite her husband's faults, Mandodari loved him and advised him to follow the path of righteousness. Ravana's defeat in a thirteen-day war turned him into a villain. But what if he were the real hero on his side of the war? What if his downfall was a result of scheming to push him out of power? This is Mandodari's story.

Must buy!
Amazing book for mythology lovers. Here you get the whole story of Ramayana but from a different perspective. P.S. There is a twist in Chapter 14.

Moderate
This book is about mandodari and her story.. it's the torment she went through her marriage to Ravana and still how she supported her husband blindly.. what I dint like is the way mandodari addressed her husband and she doesn't take any step in opposing him .. she even was dumb to take any action against her husband..it would have been better if the character of mandodari was portrayed more strongly.
