Reading Notes: PDE Mahabharata

Bibliography
PDE Mahabharata. Link to Reading.

why is everything made of wood (material that can burn)? *** research (obviously its to burn, but I’ve heard this multiple times in the story, like was this a common thing?)
ahhh everyone thought it was Kunti and her sons who burned but really it was the homeless beggars, and so Duryodhana and Dhritarashtra thought their plan worked but they thought wrong i could change this and modernize it for sure
i love the detail and description in the part about Bhima and Hidimba, but I don’t want to write about it because it is written so beautifully, I just know I wouldn’t be happy with anything I wrote (lol)
Bhima was so quick to take the rakshasa as his wife, I could write about a take on that like a high school girl falling for a guy too quick and then getting hurt
another swayamwara
woah the five husbands thing - i would need to think of some way to modernize it but not sure how
i could focus on Arjuna breaking the rules of the marriage and having to go into exile. show how having multiple relationships is too complicated
story about the alligator (fairy)
Maya’s palace drama, jealousy, I could make so many situations to change this!
excited to read the next part because there will be more drama. revenge
