About the Book

Excerpt: ...Father, only too leniently you lent your ear to those who slandered your sons: but if you intend still to allow those pious friends of yours to revel in shrill denunciation at the expense of your children, let us exchange our kingdom for the exile of our cousins, and go to the wilderness, where happily friends are never cheap! DHRITARASHTRA Could the pious warnings of my friends lessen my love for my sons, then we might be saved. But I have dipped my hands in the mire of your infamy and lost my sense of goodness. For your sakes I have heedlessly set fire to the ancient forest of our royal lineage-so dire is my love. Clasped breast to breast, we, like a double meteor, are blindly plunging into ruin. Therefore doubt not my love; relax not your embrace till the brink of annihilation be reached. Beat your drums of victory, lift your banner of triumph. In this mad riot of exultant evil, brothers and friends will disperse till nothing remain save the doomed father, the doomed son and God's curse. Enter an Attendant Sire, Queen Gandhari asks for audience. DHRITARASHTRA I await her. DURYODHANA Let me take my leave. Exit. DHRITARASHTRA Fly! For you cannot bear the fire of your mother's presence. Enter QUEEN GANDHARI, the mother of DURYODHANA GANDHARI At your feet I crave a boon. DHRITARASHTRA Speak, your wish is fulfilled. GANDHARI The time has come to renounce him. DHRITARASHTRA Whom, my queen? GANDHARI Duryodhana! DHRITARASHTRA Our own son, Duryodhana? GANDHARI Yes! DHRITARASHTRA This is a terrible boon for you, his mother, to crave! GANDHARI The fathers of the Kauravas, who are in Paradise, join me in beseeching you. DHRITARASHTRA The divine Judge will punish him who has broken His laws. But I am his father. GANDHARI Am I not his mother? Have I not carried him under my throbbing heart? Yes, I ask you to renounce Duryodhana the unrighteous. DHRITARASHTRA What will remain to us after that? GANDHARI God's blessing. DHRITARASHTRA And what will that bring us?...
