Coming Forth By Day

Translated from the Kannada original Mrutyunjaya, Coming Forth By Day tells the powerful story of the first peasant revolt in human history which took place 4,500 years ago. The leader of the revolt is Meneptah, an unassuming peasant who grows in stature into an inspiring hero and then into a cult figure. Set against the background of ancient Egypt, this sweeping narrative of oppression and courage is timeless in its appeal even while being unflinching in its authenticity to historical detail.
