'Do we mean anything?' Tara questioned hopelessly. 'Are our desires, our dreams relevant to the course of destiny at all?' Tara. Vali's wife; Sugriv's queen; the woman behind Rama's curse. A person of extraordinary intellect, foresight and determination, Tara is a master stateswoman, both before and after she marries Vali and is crowned the queen of Kishkindh. But her wisdom and stature cannot stand in the way of destiny. Tara finds herself caught in a battle of egos between the two brothers and reduced to the victor's trophy. However, in this time of conflict, she resourcefully restores peace and prosperity in the kingdom she helped build, even if it means sacrificing everything. Kavita Kané, in her latest recounting of the Ramayana, narrates the tale of Tara's truce-the compromises Tara made to fulfil her divinely ordained purpose, including marrying her husband's killer.

Autorenporträt
"Kavita Kané is a former journalist and the bestselling author of five books. She is considered a revolutionary force in Indian writing because she has brought in feminism where it is most needed- mythology. Her five novels are all based on women in Indian mythology: Karna's Wife (2013); Sita's Sister (2014), on Ramayana's most neglected character, Urmila; Menaka's Choice (2015), on the apsara, Menaka; Lanka's Princess (2016), on the female antagonist in the Ramayana, Surpanakha; and The Fisher Queen's Dynasty (2017) on Satyavati, the grand matriarch in the Mahabharata. After a career of over two decades in Magna and DNA, Kavita quit her job as assistant editor of The Times of India to devote herself to writing novels full-time. With a post-graduate degree in English literature as well as in journalism and mass communication, the only skill she has, she confesses, is writing. Passionate about theatre, cinema and art, she is also a columnist, a screenplay writer and a motivational speaker, having given several talks all across the country in educational and research institutes, corporate and management fora and literary festivals. Born in Mumbai, with a childhood spent largely in Patna and Delhi, she currently lives in Punewith her mariner husband, Prakash, their two daughters, Kimaya and Amiya, two dogs Chic andBeau, and Cotton, the uncurious cat."
