Reading Notes: Part A of CA Kincaid's Mahabharata

These are reading notes for Part A of The Mahabharata by C. A. Kincaid.

-This talks about the 100 sons and the 5 Pandava brothers
-They are all dependents of a king
-The Pandavas were good students and the 100 sons were jealous
-Talks about the Pandavas escaping the big fire by tunneling
-The evil guy is very happy because he thinks the Pandavas perished, but it was really the low caste people who were drunk.
           -This is the evil plot of someone who just seems jealous of the Pandavas
-A daughter must marry all 5 Pandava sons, there are 5 weddings.
-In these stories there are a lot of competition and jealousy.
- I will rewrite this with the characters constantly competing and being mischievous.

Julia almost let out a small giggle because she was so silly to think that this move would have been anything but beneficial. When Julia first arrived in New York, she was really here for the inspiration that this big city would
