‘In Shashi Tharoor's satirical masterpiece, the story of the Mahabharata is retold as modern Indian history, and renowned political personalities begin to resemble characters from the epic -all of whom have a curious and ambiguous relationship with Draupadi Mokrasi (D. Mokrasi for short) . . . Brimming with incisive wit and as enjoyable a read as it is cerebrally stimulating, The Great Indian Novel brilliantly retells reality as myth.’
