The Cleaved Kingdom – Tamling Sarojini Subba

In the pursuit of finding her roots, the author embarks on a historical research journey to unearth the authenticity that shrouds the distinctiveness of the autochthonous tribe of Sikkim, the Limbu Tribe. Navigating through the intricate tapestries of the limited History of Sikkim and History of Limbuwan, the author finds herself entwined in volumes of published research work of anthropologists, writers and scholars, which however, have remained confined to published papers and academic sites.
With plethora of rich undisclosed information, the author calls this first Solo Work of hers as Connect the dots filled with her personal essence. From translation errors to misconstrued history to misinterpreted identity that veils the past, present and the future of the Limbu Tribe of Sikkim, the author covers it all to bring to the readers, the legitimacy of her tribe from her perspective. By doing so, this book also explores the history of Sikkim, Limbuwan, Bhutan, Shang Shung and Tibet.
While the twelve chapters walk you through the ancient kingdoms of the yore, the six poems reflect her creative streak.
Join the author in this quest of unearthing the truth and disassociation of myths that veil the identity, religion and culture of the indigenous tribe of Sikkim, the Limbu with “The Cleaved Kingdom-Unveiling the Myths of Limbuwan and Sukhim.”
