Book Description

orn from a fire ritual, draupadi’s life is rich with experiences of various kind. Though she fell in love with Arjuna, one of the five pandava brothers, it is so destined for her to live as the common wife of all the five brothers. Her life undergoes many transformations wherein she plays the roles of a beautiful princess, a powerful queen, the wife of pandavas, and even a commoner in the dark forests. Right from her birth to her heavenly ascension, Draupadi: The Fire-Born Princess (Campfire Graphic Novels) magnificently illustrates draupadi as an astonishingly powerful woman who holds the centre stage.

With a multitude of stories interwoven in a single thread, it is undoubtedly tedious to detach a single character from mahabharata and distinctly speak about it. The beauty of this craft lies in the author’s successful effort to depict Draupadi’s perspectives alone in the book, that too without disturbing the flow and naturality of the epic at any point. The author has chosen to narrate the story from a first person perspective, which also gives the reader a clear picture on her predecessors. The book is rich with its magical illustrations by artist Manu, which add on to the beauty of the craft. Published by Campfire in 2013, the book is available in paperback.

Key Features:

The book is widely acclaimed for its novelty in approach and presentation of a massive concept in a subtle format.
The book was widely reviewed by many international media including the The New York Journal of Books.

Review

“A story with a princess, a lying king, a cheating lord, a period of exile, a lesson in what matters in life, a family that argues and cheats, and a mystical element that gives magical weapons from the great beyond… This book showcases why the graphic novel format has become one of the leading and best ways to help tell a story… This is a story that will inspire and fill the reader’s mind with faith and drive for their own lives.”

— Mark Squirek, The New York Journal of Books

“I highly recommend Campfire’s comics. They do what they are intended to do and do it in a way that excites kids about classic literature.”

— Chris Wilson, The Graphic Classroom (a resource for teachers and librarians)
