About The Book
This book is the English translation of the Malayalam novel 'Ini Njan Urangatte' (And Now Let Me Sleep), a novel that subsists on the Mahabharata. The book is unparalleled in its lofty language, imagery, and depth and is considered one of the best classics in the language. The novel is the story of Karna as seen through the eyes of Draupadi. A work originating from the Vyasabharatha, it has caught the stylized language and mood of the great epic. It gives a new intellectual and spiritual dimension to a recreated Draupadi (the wife of the Pandavas). Her painful story unveils around the unacknowledged eldest Pandava, Karna, born to maiden Kunti from the Sun God. The novel maintains the original story, epic atmosphere, events, and characters which distinguishes it from other works based on the Mahabharata.About the Author: P.K. Balakrishnan, Jayalekshmy P.K.
