Citadel of Love

De: Pratibha Ray

Narrado por: Samir Sharma

Based on folklore, legends and myths, and backed by meticulous research, Citadel of Love is set in Odisha of the 13th century - considered the state’s golden age, when the Konark temple was being built under King Narasimha Deva’s patronage. A modern-day foreigner, Charles, arrives with his fiancée to study the Konark region. As he discovers palm leaf manuscripts and records tales that were handed down generations, he begins to have strange experiences. A woman’s statue, in particular, haunts him till he is transported to a time when she was alive and the Konark complex was under construction. Two mystical love stories of the past unfold, even as new romance blooms in Charles’ life. Surreal, mysterious and often bordering on the magical-real, this is a tale of passion that spans centuries.

Terrible Narrative

I couldn't get through 2 hours of this book because of the narrator. There was no inflections in his voice. His accent so thick I couldn't distinguish the character names. Just a bland narration. I really loved the synopsis of this book, and will try it in written form.
