Its modern as well as traditional in its treatment, its detailed as well as precise in its flow and wordings.. The translation by Arunava Sinha is very smooth and simple. The book is a quick read and can be finished in 6 hrs flat View 1 comment. Jan 05, Lsharathkumar rated it it was amazing. I visited Humpi a month ago. I could neither explore the ruins properly nor learn the greatness of Vijayanagar. While my heart wept at the brutality of the barbarians who destroyed the greatest city in the world in 15th century, Shorodindu takes us back in time when Vijayanagar was all that stood between barbarian foreign invaders and the ancient vedantic culture.
I also thank Arunav Sinha for not changing the narrative to suit political correctness. While the work itself is fiction , Saradindu I visited Humpi a month ago. While the work itself is fiction , Saradindu expertly weaves a fascinating tale around the dreary existence of people living under foreign rule and how Vijayanagar was the last bastion of resistance until the great Shivaji Maharaj arrived on the scene Oct 04, Sudeep rated it really liked it. A quick read.
It glorifies the vijayanagara kingdom and describes Hampi quite accurately, and Devaraya as a beloved king. This is more of a story of Bidyunmala, the princess of Kalinga, who comes to get married to Devaraya and Arjunaverma, the conspiricies and adventures during that time. The main quote that seduced me into reading this book is I am from a place where Tunga flows "In Ganges you take a dip and in Tunga you take a sip. Make one feel like visiting Hampi. Just felt like time travelling..
May 12, Jash Sen rated it really liked it. A powerful translation of a lyrically written original, this used to be one of my favourite historical novels.
I read it after years, and realised with some discomfort that although the story still reads beautifully, the author's tone on the state of hindu- muslim relations made me uncomfortable. Were our two major religions really this uneasy sitting side by side to each other? Saradindu wrote this in the forties; had I been a muslim reader, I would have felt acutely uncomfortable with the book A powerful translation of a lyrically written original, this used to be one of my favourite historical novels.
Saradindu wrote this in the forties; had I been a muslim reader, I would have felt acutely uncomfortable with the book's tone in the political climate of the time. The story is a romantic adventure set in the Vijaynagar kingdom against a backdrop of Vijaynagar-Bahmani hostilities. That, and a healthy dose of intrigue to keep the reader engaged. Saradindu was a master at creating suspense and romance, and this book is no different. The thing that makes this book work for me is the lyricism of the romance between the different characters,which lifts a simple love story to unexpected heights.
And the author's descriptions, although sometimes it is virtually impossible to recreate the music of Saradindu's original words.
I suppose it is because classical Bengali and contemporary English are two such different sounding languages. Still, an excellent translation of a book that remains a favourite. Oct 15, Darcey rated it it was ok Shelves: historical-fiction , india , romance , religion , paranormal. An interesting read; I'd prefer to get my tongue around Bengali and read it in the original, since there were some turns of phrase I think may have been awkward, and certain things stick out "he raised his left arm" as overly specific.
Still - it was an enjoyable read, if fairly predictable. View 2 comments. Jun 07, Debanuj Chatterjee rated it it was amazing. Sharadindu Bandyopadhyay is undoubtedly one of the most celebrated historical fictionists in Bengali literature.
His vivid depiction of ancient monarchic societies is accurately detailed, colorfully adorned and enigmatically lively. The storyline and the characters many a time remind us of ethical values within the complicated emotional atmosphere. The storytelling offers us a ride through the psyche of the different characters as the turn of events slowly intertwines them. The two main characte Sharadindu Bandyopadhyay is undoubtedly one of the most celebrated historical fictionists in Bengali literature.
The two main characters, princess Bidyunmala and soldier Arjunbarma, incarnate classic lovers. Their marriage with a happy ending of the novel is indicative of the true strength of true love.
