Come October, Infosys Foundation Chairperson and author Sudha Murthy will come out with her latest book -- "The daughter from a wishing tree", a work on women in mythology.

The book published by Penguin India is slated for launch on October 16 but it has already created quite a buzz amongst a section of bibliophiles, particularly those who love mythological stories.

"This is a mythology book - Women in mythology other than 'Sita' and 'Draupadi'. It will deal only with Hindu mythology," Murthy told PTI, giving a brief insight.

Elaborating, she said: "It is very tough actually (to write such a book). Getting from mythology...because most of it is written by men, so very few women are there."
