मी गांधारी (Mi Gandhari) is a Marathi book written by Sudhakar Shukla and published by Continental Prakashan. The book is a retelling of the story of Gandhari, the wife of Dhritarashtra and mother of the Kauravas, from her own perspective. It explores her complex motivations and emotions, and offers a nuanced and sympathetic portrayal of one of the most controversial figures in the Mahabharata. The book is divided into three parts. The first part, "The Childhood of Gandhari," tells the story of her early life, from her birth to her marriage to Dhritarashtra. The second part, "The War of Kurukshetra," recounts the events of the Mahabharata, from the start of the war to the death of Gandhari. The third part, "The Final Years of Gandhari," tells the story of her life after the war, from her exile to her death. Throughout the book, Sudhakar Shukla deftly weaves together historical fact and literary fiction to create a vivid and compelling portrait of Gandhari. He draws on a wide range of sources, including the Mahabharata, the Puranas, and the Buddhist Jataka tales, to create a nuanced and sympathetic portrayal of one of the most controversial figures in Indian history. मी गांधारी is a must-read for anyone interested in the Mahabharata, in Indian history, or in the complex lives of women. It is a powerful and moving story of a woman who was forced to live in a world that was not her own, and who ultimately found her own way to peace.
