Being born a princess, and raised by a loving father and three doting brothers would make life
seem like a bed of roses to any woman. Born out of the sacred fire, Draupadi is no ordinary
woman, and her destiny cannot be to walk the beaten path.
Witnessing estrangement and betrayal within her own family makes her perceptive and intuitive
beyond her years. Complicated marital relationships, a meteoric rise and a fateful loss, humiliation
unheard of and a pledge of revenge, all culminating in a bloody war—her ordeal seemed neverending.
Yet she stands up to it all—never succumbing, never breaking. One of the most unforgettable
characters of the Mahabharata, Draupadi shows what a woman is capable of.
Told with great sensitivity and passion, this book brings alive a character of epic proportions—one
that resonates with every reader across space and time.
