Week 9 Reading Diary A

Narayan's Mahabharata pg 1-39.

Important Notes:
-Devavratha was raised in the river and did not have a dad.
-Raised by his mother.
-Devavratha needs to marry and father's of daughters want to make sure that their daughter will be on the throne.
-Takes vow of celibacy because of a stolen cow and killing mating deers.
-There seem to be a lot of characters in this book and I need to find the main characters.
-Vsaya is the parent to Vidura.
-King is blind.
-Pandu and Madri die.
-Arjuna and Karna are brothers, however, they are unaware of this.

-There seem to be a lot of different things going on within the first 39 pages. I feel like I've highlighted the main points, however, I need to do further internet research to gain a better understanding of this complicated story.
