There’s A Carnival Today – Indra Bahadur Rai

There’s A Carnival Today – Indra Bahadur Rai | Vast in scope and prescient, this book is as much a panoramic view of post-independence Darjeeling as it is of the sharply observed, flesh-and-blood characters who people it. It is also as foreshadowing of the issues of identity which still shape politics and attitudes in the region. Brilliantly translated by Majushree Thapa, This seminal work by one of the tallest figures in contemporary Nepali literature is a modern classic.
