What if every myth carried the memory of a forgotten truth?
A talking fish. A moon that fell in love with the Earth. Ancient serpents guarding the balance of the world. A nuclear submarine facing an impossible choice. Across these stories, myth, science, history, and imagination come together in unexpected ways.
In Once Upon a Flying Fish, Prasanna V reimagines timeless legends through the lens of logic and human curiosity. Drawing inspiration from Indian mythology while echoing traditions from across the world, these tales transform the familiar into the extraordinary.
Thought-provoking, imaginative, and deeply rooted in culture, this collection invites readers to look beyond folklore and ask a simple question:
What if myths were never meant to explain the impossible—but to help us remember it?
