Breaking Nepal – Saurav & Sujit Mainali

One of the most interesting books that hit the market this year is easily “Breaking Nepal”, edited by Sujit Mainali, with Saurav contributing the prelude. It contains a series of excerpts, occasionally punctuated by telling tales of outrageous comments made by foreign writers on Nepal. The read gives an idea of how sweeping remarks and blatant lies marketed as facts are readily lapped up by the naïve and the prejudiced as sources of substance.
