Travelogue: Through Nepalese Eyes (Satis Shroff)

Bild
Review by Renate Mousseux. M.A. ED: Through Nepalese Eyes is a highly interesting, authentic story taking the reader through traditions and customs of 2 different countries. The stories are written through the Eyes of a Nepalese, hence the Title. We learn about the role of women, religious beliefs, political events, ethical and socio-economic situations in Nepal. We see comparisons of Europe and Asia and learn about the vast differences of life. This book is a must read, I recommend it highly. (Renate Mousseux. M.A. ED.

Humanitarian Tragedy in Europe’s Eastern Border (Satis Shroff) Due to the dramatic development along the 1000km Ukraine-Belarussian border, where thousands of migrants from Syria and Iraq are forced to live in the cold, wet forests zone, the Ukraine is not sending humanitarian help but 3000 border soldiers, 2000 national guards to control the border against an invasion of migrants. Moreover, 15 helicopters are being deployed to observe the forested and swampy areas, according to minister Denys Monastryskyj. He said the barb-wired border will be extended. The Ukraine wants to build an ‘intelligent border’ and the Ukranian government will be spending 560 million to achieve this goal. The people from Iraq and Syria, who have paid for the flight, visa and hotel in White Russia, are now obliged to spend days and nights in the cold border. Their hopes of reaching and receiving political asylum in the west (Germany, France and Switzerland) have been squashed by the border disputes of the fo...

Interview With Satis Shroff, Neruda Award 2017

Bild
When did you first start writing? I really started writing when I went to Kathmandu to do my BSc in Zoology and Botany. I used to write articles and stories in The Rising Nepal, an Engish daily. The day Satchmo died I had the urge to write something about this great trumpet player. After college I joined the newspaper and wrote a science column of my own (mostly conservation of wildlife in Nepal) and about cultural events, now and then about a yeti-expedition or about glaciers in the Himalayas. What’s the story behind your latest book? It’s a memoir about a young writer who goes west to study, meets interesting people, travels to fascinating countries, tries out different cuisine and gets to know about the Germanfolk as a student, as a lecturer, singer in a men’s choire. He also visits his former home-country and is interested in the literature of the two countries, as well as English literature. Nepal’s lingua franca is Nepali but since his parents sent him to an Irish...
