Superbly skilled, speedy and strong, Arjuna boasted that he was the world’s greatest warrior. But, despite his unquestionable courage, this honourable Pandava prince realised he could not confront Lord Indra’s power – or even the wiles of a cheeky monkey – without help. He needed divine weapons, such as the Gandiva bow, with its inexhaustible supply of arrows, and a special war chariot. Most importantly, he needed the blessings of the gods, especially Lord Vishnu.

The Mahabharata like you’ve never known it before! In this contemporary retelling, Sarita Sharma narrates the story of India’s grandest epic from an insider perspective, in this case, from the perspective of the great warrior-hero, Arjuna. In the last years of their life, Arjuna, his siblings and wife set out to attain moksha. To his shock, Arjuna finds himself in hell, for reasons he cannot fathom. Alone in a numbing darkness, he has all the time to introspect on his life, relationships, accomplishments and failures. Arjuna’s narrative strings together a series of character profiles of his family members and other prominent characters from the epic. It’s a no-holds-barred, psychological interpretation of their personalities, motivation and behaviour, warts and all. Interspersed with these recollections are fascinating, little-known back stories from the epic, set against the backdrop of the cities and forests of Aryavarta. Courage and honour, dharma and power, love and sacrifice, anger and pride—the Mahabharata’s celebrated themes weave through Arjuna’s narrative as it goes back and forth in time, its ancient wisdom enlivened with modern touches.

I knew there was nothing poetic about death. I knew not that the most horrific battles are fought off the battlefield. Arjun: The idealist in a non-ideal world; the warrior whose deadliest opponent was his conscience. History forgot his voice, but misquoted his silence. My self-esteem originates from me and ends in me. Why does your honor depend on me? Find your own. Draupadi: The untamed tigress, the fragrant flame, the unbridled spirit. Power does not justify sin. Power is not virtue. Virtue is that which lasts in spite of power. Krishn: The enigma whose unique ideology churned the battlefield into a quest for Truth. The Missile …The Trajectory … The Vision. The trio that makes for the core of The Mahabharata (Indian Epic). This is their saga. Insightful, visceral and candid. Find ‘other’ famous Arjuns; compare Arjun vis-a-vis Achilles and Alexander; Explore Myths of Mahabharata. All this and much more in ‘Arjun: Without A Doubt’.

We are playing relatives offers a comprehensive survey of literary writing in the Malay language. It starts with the playful evocations of language and reality in the Hikayat Hang Tuah, a work that circulated on the Malay Peninsula in the eighteenth century, and follows the Malay literary impulse up to the beginning of the twenty-first century, a time when the dominant notions of Malay literature seem to fade away in the cyberspace created on the island of Java, and the Hikayat Hang Tuah's play and dance on the sounds of Malay words seem to be infused with a new vitality. We are playing relatives covers a highly heterogeneous group of texts published over a long period of time in many places in Southeast Asia. The book is organized around a discussion of related texts that are crucial in the rise of the notion of 'Malay literature'.
