My reading Diary is over the story
Karna: Brave, Generous, Ill Fated Prince. I chose to read this story because I
wanted to focus on Karna. I felt like he does not receive much attention in the
Mahabharata. He reminds me off a super hero. Especially his birth. His birth
reminds me of the birth of Superman. I plan on taking a completely different
path with this story. I want to make Karna into a super hero. I will put
emphasis on his armor and earrings given to him buy his godly father. I also
want to pay attention to his life growing up. I want to make Arjuna (his
brother) his worst enemy simply because he is Dona’s favorite student. They
will each have a sidekick. Karna’s sidekick will be Duryodhana and Arjuna’s
will be their teacher Drona. I will omit the Pandava’s from this story simply
because I want to focus on Karna. I will also make the scene where Karna finds
out that his brother more dramatic. I am debating if I want to have a happy
ending or if I want to end it in the common fashion where Karna is killed by
Arjuna. I am also debating if I want to make Karna a bad guy or the good guy. I
am inclined to making Karna the victor rather than Arjuna. I have also
considered leaving the ending of the story as a cliff hanger and break it up
into two parts.
