Her name might not roll so easily off the average Western tongue, but Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni's tales — featured in esteemed reads like The Atlantic Monthly and The New Yorker — always leave those same tongues wagging. In The Palace of Illusions, Divakaruni reworks The Mahabharat, the Indian epic upon which so much magic and mythology is based. Her heroine has to juggle five husbands, all brothers, who struggle to regain their father's kingdom; the results are splendidly mystical.
