After witnessing the death of her mother, the grief-stricken Pampa Kampana becomes a vessel for the goddess Parvati, who begins to speak out of the girls mouth. Granting her powers beyond Pampa Kampanas comprehension, the goddess tells her that she will be instrumental in the rise of a great city called Bisnaga - literally victory city - the wonder of the world.</p><p>Over the next two hundred and fifty years, Pampa Kampanas life becomes deeply interwoven with Bisnagas, from its literal sowing out of a bag of magic seeds to its tragic ruination in the most human of ways: the hubris of those in power. Whispering Bisnaga and its citizens into existence, Pampa Kampana attempts to make good on the task that Parvati set for her: to give women equal agency in a patriarchal world. But all stories have a way of getting away from their creator, and Bisnaga is no exception. As years pass, rulers come and go, battles are won and lost, and allegiances shift, the very fabric of Bisnaga becomes an ever more complex tapestry - with Pampa Kampana at its center.</p><p>Brilliantly styled as a translation of an ancient epic, this is a saga of love, adventure, and myth that is in itself a testament to the power of storytelling.</p><p> Salman Rushdie 2023 (P) Penguin Audio 2023</p>(*_*)9781529904710_<p><strong>Brought to you by Penguin.</strong></p><p>In the wake of an insignificant battle between two long-forgotten kingdoms in fourteenth-century southern India, a nine-year-old girl has a divine encounter that will change the course of history.
