Halfway to the heavens, in a
realm hidden by clouds, a divine beauty—a yakshini—is facing a sentence for
her folly. Down on Earth, a couple in Maharashtra is expecting their seventh
child and is performing a special yajna to fulfil their desires. By a strange
quirk of fate, these two distinctly different lives are soon to be
intertwined. Fifteen-year-old Meenakshi is no ordinary girl. Blessed with
celestial attributes, she has beauty that would rival a goddess’, a unique
communion with nature and a supernatural being living inside her. Even so,
Meenakshi lives amongst men and eventually, the evil eye falls upon her.
That’s when the yakshini inside her awakens. As the yakshini takes control,
Meenakshi is catapulted into a world of passion and violence that even
threatens her husband life. Neil d’silva’s yakshini is a toe-curling,
spine-tingling tale where mythology comes deliciously alive on the page. With
its fantastic creatures and unforgettable characters, the book highlights the
tussle between the supernatural and the human, sure to enchant all readers.
