Description
by Gl Rai-Zimmdar (Author)
Rumer Godden's Black Narcissus was an instant hit in the post colonial period as it reminisce the good old days of British Indian Empire. However, there is a tragic difference, Godden was writing about the one and only place where the Brits and their Gurkha wives had lived in peaceful harmony of tea gardens of Darjeeling.
Author Biography
Gurkhas are internationally known as fighters but they do not fight for themselves. Gurkhas do not write; no Gurkha has ever written a single word neither about themselves nor why they fight for their friends. Colonel GL Rai-Zimmdar is the first person to break ranks and begin writing. While doing so, he is able to draw heavily from their rich oral traditions and obviously none but a true Gurkha could be most eminently suited to do so.
