About this listen

सोमनाथ हिन्दी साहित्य के कालजयी उपन्यासों में से है। बहुत कम ऐतिहासिक उपन्यास इतने रोचक और लोकप्रिय हुए हैं। इसके पीछे आचार्य चतुरसेन की वर्षों की साधना, गहन अध्ययन और सबसे बढ़कर उनकी लाजवाब लेखन-शैली है।

बारह ज्योतिर्लिंगों में सोमनाथ का अग्रणी स्थान है। अन्य विदेशी आक्रमणकारियों के अलावा महमूद गजनवी ने इस आदि-मंदिर के वैभव को 16 बार लूटा। पर सूर्यवंशी राजाओं के पराक्रम से वह भय भी खाता था। फिर भी लूट का यह सिलसिला सदियों तक चला। यह सब इस उपन्यास की पृष्ठभूमि है।

'सोमनाथ' का दूसरा पक्ष भी है जो उपन्यास में जीवंत हुआ है। मंदिर के विशाल प्रांगण में गूंजती घुंघरुओं की झनकार इस जीवन की लय को ताल देती है। जीवन का यह संगीत भारत के जनमानस का संगीत है। आततायियों के नगाड़ों का शोर इसे दबा नहीं पाता। एक अजब सी शक्ति से वह फिर-फिर उठता है और करता है-एक और पुनर्निर्माण। निर्माण और विध्वंस की यही शृंखला इस कथा का आधार है।

Should read. Depicted emotions & natures of virtuous heroes & characters around them as well as the times like those, so succinctly that one goes back on the Time Machine. Enjoyed a lot, and got affected towards patriotism. ✌🏽

Fantastic narration of an outstanding story!

निःशब्द, स्तब्ध, और अश्रू पूरित गाथा।
मानो मेरे सम्मुख कोई सजीव चित्रण किया है।

जय सोमनाथ

The narration is very poor, so much that it was hard to believe that the audiobook comes from the Audible which has superb and etheral renditions from Babla Kochar for Alchemist. Pronunciation of Deevas Gupta is as bad as his way of rendition. His voice is mechanical, routine and unenergetic, modulations are awfully timed. Overall such a beautiful novel has been wasted with a substandard voice which could not learn the pronunciation of Mahalaya, Ghrishneeshwar or dyotak. Please don't ever do that.

An engrossing storyline with well researched inputs from History
