Wow Chitra is amazing....

My favourite author Chitra Bannerjee Divakaruni is out in India at the moment... She lives in California and is a professor of creative writing.  

This is amazing... love what she put on her timeline....

"Friends, So exciting! Went to the City Palace of Jaipur, to see the famous Green Doors which are on the cover of Palace of Illusions. Had to take this photo, courtesy of Murthy!" 

and below is my copy off my bookshelf ... actually making me feel like reading it again. 

Note: Chitra had one of her books made into film Mistress of Spices... 

Relevant to today’s war-torn world, The Palace of Illusions takes us back to a time that is half history, half myth, and wholly magical. Narrated by Panchaali, the wife of the legendary Pandavas brothers in the Mahabharat, the novel gives us a new interpretation of this ancient tale. quoted from Goodreads site.
