Stoking the anger of many, Uruvi must now face the social implications of her marriage and also use her love and intelligence to be accepted by her husband Karna and his family. Even though Uruvi secures a prime place in the life of Karna, giving counseling and guidance to him, his devotion to Duryodhana is beyond her ability to change. Being a queen for an outcastKarna, Uruvi faces a lot of struggles. Amidst all her hardships, she stands firmly on Karna's side, giving him a great support, even when the whole world turned against him due to his misfortunes and fate. The essence of the story lies in the representation of Karna during the Kurukshetra war between Pandavas and kauravas. Karna's loyalty with his guru Duryodhana, his guru's love for his disciple, Karna's birth mystery are some of the themes explored in the book. The book is about Karna, but only told wholly from his wife's eyes. Karna's Wife: The Outcast's Queen came as a surprise to readers who are familiar with the story of Mahabharata.
