BOOK SUMMARY OF NARADA PURANA PT. 5 (AITM VOL. 19):ANCIENT INDIAN TRADITION AND
MYTHOLOGY (VOL. 19)
Epics of history are rare and The Peacock Throne is one of them. No royal
lineage offers such a spectacle of high drama as the Mogul Dynasty of India
which created the world`s most famous monument-the Taj Mahal. Not since Greek
tradedy has there been so stark a revelation of the excesses of human behavior:
incest, fratricide sons revolting continuously against fathers and the madness
of uncontrolled aggression. These are the forces animating The Peacock Throne
which brings India to both Eastern and Western readers as never before.
