The First Love Story: Dakshayani by Shubhankar Mishra - Book Launched

New Delhi [India], January 15: In a literary landscape often dominated by retellings that skim the surface of mythology, The First Love Story: Dakshayani by Shubhankar Mishra emerges as a refreshing and deeply evocative work that invites readers to rediscover one of the most profound love stories ever told. Conceived as the opening volume of a series, this book marks the beginning of the immortal saga of Shiva and Shakti, focusing on the powerful yet often overlooked narrative of Dakshayani, Mother Sati, the daughter of King Daksha. Rather than reiterating the commonly known climax of the tale, Mishra's work courageously journeys into the emotional, spiritual, and philosophical depths that precede it, offering readers a richer and more immersive experience of this timeless story.
