Book Review - Mrityunjay - The Death Conqueror👏
👏👏 Mrityunjay - The Death Conqueror . The original Marathi magnum opus of Mr Shivaji Sawant has been very ably translated into English by Mr Pushottam Lal & Ms Nandini Nopany. My copy was a hard cover book bound with hand-woven silk cloth and golden lettering on the cover; the pages golden edged. It definitely does credit to the contents and the homage that is paid to the great character that Karna was. Credit must go to my nephew Suryakalpo Sarker for introducing me to the book. In literal terms, Mrityunjay means a person who has conquered death. Taken from the story of the Mahabharata, the book is the story of the life of Karna, the great warrior, the greatest giver; Karna, who braved the mightiest of disadvantages, insults, unfairness, injustice, humiliation and contempt to emerge victorious as a person of sterling character. A personality to be the role model for youth all through the ages. Very inspirational. Karna...
