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."
