Samhita Arni
When she was eight, Samhita Arni started writing and illustrating her first book. The Mahabharata - A Child's View went on to be published in seven language editions and sell 50,000 copies. Samhita's second book, Sita's Ramayana, a graphic novel developed in collaboration with Patua artist Moyna Chitrakar, was on the New York Times Bestseller list for Graphic Novels. She is also the author of the speculative-fiction mythological thriller, The Missing Queen. The Prince, her fourth novel, recently won the 2019 Neev Book Award. Samhita lives in Bangalore with two cats and teaches creative writing at the Srishti Institute of Art, Design and Technology.
