Summary: The text is a creative and concise translation of Vyasa's Mahabharata (Critical Edition). The author narrates the epic story through the perspective of Vidura (Vyasa's son). The main narrative, presented in the third person, is interspersed with Vidura's first-person commentary on the various characters and events, adding a distinctive touch to this retelling of the timeless tale of the Mahabharata. The lucid prose effortlessly guides readers through this epic journey, while Vidura's reflections encourage pauses to ponder moral dilemmas that remain as relevant and thought-provoking today as they were in ancient India. Book 1, titled Beginnings, covers the Adi Parva and Sabha Parva of Vyasa's Mahabharata. Book 2, Preparations for War, spans the Vana, Virata, and Udyoga Parvas. Book 3, War at Kurukshetra, encompasses the Bhishma, Drona, Karna, and Shalya Parvas. Finally, Book 4, Aftermath of War, concludes the epic with the remaining Parvas. https://www.mlbd.in/products/viduras-mahabharata-wat-at-kurukshetra-book-3-by-devdas-menon-9789368530770-9368530777-9789368539131-9368539138?srsltid=AfmBOoov98G_wPsMjYuTMe1dC3ueae8MjQLZgyi8GikvNBtHxAbPX-DD
