Jyestha Devi: The Goddess of Misfortune (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9788119483662)

"Tell me, Lakshmi, why is it always a woman who is to blame for the chaos that occurs in the universe?"

When Jyestha the goddess of misfortune emerges from the churning of the ocean neither the Devas headed by Indra nor the demons headed by Virochana want her.

Stung by the rejection and by her unwanted marriage to Rishi Dussaha, Jyestha undergoes various tribulations in the three worlds governed by the Trimurti. Silently, she vows vengeance for her mistreatment. Nursing envy towards her sister Lakshmi while craving her fortune, Jyestha's rise to power is a tale filled with self-discovery, feminine grit, family drama and romance.

This mythological fiction is a feminine narrative shedding light on a young goddess's ambition and desire.
