Description
Colours of Kanchenjunga an eclectic mix of Nepali short stories. Of various themes, narrative modes and styles, this anthology has a scope to reach to different kinds of readers. Most of the stories in this anthology are from the early decades after Independence, a time where the fragrance of freedom still labored under Indian Nepali community with their inimitable gift of seeing something glorious, beautiful or downright comic even in the worst of situations, was stoic and jovial by temperament. Their partiality towards alcohol and in taking life ‘as it comes’ sees them through economic hardships, political upheavals, superstitions even as Darjeeling is caught between progress and regress, hope and despair.
