Book excerpt: Making Sense of Myth and Mythopoeia stands out for its unique and holistic treatment of mythmaking in the current set-up. Renowned mythopoeic writers Anand Neelakantan and Anuja Chandramouli offer deep insights into the genre thereby making the book an unputdownable must-read for myth lovers. The book also houses revisionist texts by Swarnalatha Rangarajan and A.V. Koshy. The subtitle is justified in The Editor's Workshop where the editors offer key pointers for interpreting a mythopoeic text. In the section titled The Critic/ Researcher, research papers by academicians serve as illustrations of what goes best into exploring a revisionist rendering. Sujatha Aravindakshan Menon offers a wide-ranging theoretical framework that applies to mythological renderings. Things don't end here. Readers and myth lovers discover the ‘Goodreads’ to fan their passion for generative/ adaptive renderings in the section Book Reports/ Reviews.
