F1 Rubrics for Scoring New York State Comprehensive Examinaton in English. Appendix A7d: Additional Modern Nepalese Writers. Mortal Attractions: A Simpleton's Odyssey by Prakash Gurung Simpleton, the hero of this novel, migrates from his village to in search of work and a better life. But he soon begins to feel the pressure of big-city life as he finds it difficult to find work and everyday survival becomes an uphill battle. He falls in love with a girl from a higher caste family and experiences the heartbreak of being rejected as a poor country boy. This novel shows the struggle, desperation and frustration that is the lot of millions of ordinary people in Third World countries who dream of better and more fulfilling lives. Beyond the Illusions by Sheeba Shivangini Shah This gripping tale is an intriguing, intimate saga of love and betrayal, life and its puzzling dilemmas, blending erotic ecstasy and sexual slavery with rampant religious rituals and tainted Tantric temptations. Bhairavi is puzzled when her husband, Jayant, suddenly begins to try some new, weird and wonderful tricks in the bedroom. Soon afterwards, he mysteriously disappears without saying a word. Distraught, she sets off with her friend Neha in search of him, across the plains of India to the foothills of the Himalaya and the banks of the holy river Ganges. What follows is a story that will capture your imagination, stimulate your senses and mesmerise your mind with anticipation"for all is not what it seems. As Bhairavi extricates herself from the charms of the material world around her, she slowly begins to slip deeper and deeper into the realms of Tantra, taking the reader along with her into the ethereal space of the black goddess, Kali. A spiritual quest for ultimate realisation unfolds throughout the pages. Confession by Kavita Ram Shrestha Controversial and boldly written, this powerful translation is available for the first time in the English language. The Nepali characters of a sick woman, a dwarf and a prostitute portray frustrated people which society creates but then turns into objects of hatred. Although it is a story of opposition to society's values, it is, as the author says, "a story that exists in all places, times and personalities". Introduction by Krishnachandra Singh. Faulty Glasses and Other Stories by B P Koirala. Translated by Keshar Lall. In this book, Nepal's pre-eminent statesman, B P Koirala, recreates a world of emotion in all its varied manifestations: love, loathing, compassion, jealousy, fear, affection, anger and pity. Written in the late 1940s, his short stories of human interaction take place at various locations throughout Nepal. They provide valuable insights into the everyday lives of the Nepalese people. B P Koirala is considered to be the father of modern Nepal. As the country's popularly elected Prime Minister, he is eminently qualified to illuminate the customs, attitudes and activities of his people. In this collection, Koirala has bequeathed to us a treasury of tales that look beyond the obvious and attempt to delve into the motivations and aspirations of his characters. One can find no better Nepali raconteur than B P Koirala and no finer vehicle than these short but meaningful stories. Fever by Sita Panday. Edited by Yuyutsu R D Sharma. Translated by Yuyutsu R D Sharma and others. Fever is an explosive anthology of short stories from an author who has been at the centre of literary commotion in Nepal for the past two decades. Mature and skillfully structured, these stories investigate the hidden recesses of a woman's mind. Bold, intense and honest, they narrate the life struggle of a young woman from the Nepalese countryside hankering for a fresh emotional plateau of faith in a callously modernised cityscape of the legendary Shangri-la kingdom. Thus as one reads Sita Panday page after page, one finds the personal fused with the public. Having entered the valley of a woman's mind, Sita effortlessly transcends gender and geography. The rage and revolt expressed in her characters reveals a woman's urge to shatter the norms of a decaying value system and reach out to a "universal celebration" and a "private space". Kathmandu, Treks and Hippies Too by Dorothy Mierow Based on her own experiences, Dorothy Mierow's absorbing and dramatic novel chronicles the adventures of Cindy Adams, a bright but confused college graduate who in the 1960s was among the first American Peace Corps Volunteers to be sent to Nepal, a small and remote Himalayan kingdom which, till then, was isolated from the rest of the world. Aside from the Peace Corps, Nepal was also becoming the new found "Shangri La" destination for the Asia-overland, vagabond hippie set. In those heady days, hash was legal, love was cheap and life was high. Struggling to make sense of an alien but exotic culture which she helps to bring from the middle ages into the 20th century, Cindy questions her own values and finds her way towards a fulfilling purpose in life. Royals of the Crown by Sheeba Shivangini Shah Loyals of the Crown proves itself to be distinct both in terms of its approach, aptitude and presentation. It bubbles with the enthusiasm to probe deep into the conclaves of the most controversial. The author endeavors to fill in the vacuum created by the past generation of historians and literalist and have proven the fact that history is not merely an elucidation of single protagonist and events and activities surrounding them. History as she puts it is an episode, which has peripheral dimensions where a multitude of characters, events and activities needs to be taken into consideration. This is what she has done describing the temperament and idiosyncrasies of His Majesty King Rajendra in a manner, which has been completely ignored by earlier writers. She depicts him, not as a senile, incompetent, irrational and schizophrenic personality , but speaks of his concealed attributes and describes him as a loving husband, an intriguing diplomat, and a true nationalist. It is also clear that his wives, his courtiers and 'Darbarias' exploited his weaknesses to the fullest extent and whilst pretending to be 'Loyal' betrayed him and usurped the royal governance. The Royals as she projects them were never able to make correct and sane judgments in selecting the 'Loyal' thus those who were truly loyal in due course of time would either be dumped or assassinated as was epitomized by the fates of both Mathbir Singh Thapa and . Written as historical fiction with the underlying romantic activities of the Royal court providing the base for the story line; this novel provides us with a unique view of life as it was in the Nepali court in the pre-Rana era. It also provides us with insight into the scenario behind Jung Bahadur's usurping of the royal authority and the establishing of the that ruled Nepal with an iron hand for one hundred and four years.

Mortal Attraction: A Simpleton's Odyssey by Prakash Gurung Life in the Third World is a hard one, and Nepal is no exception. The story of Simpleton, the hero of the book, is but a reflection of the many privations and difficulties endured by the people on a daily basis, affecting every aspect of their insecure lives and loves in which money makes a very romantic gift indeed. The aptly-named hero leaves his village for the bright lights of the big city to fall in love again. Love, murder, marriage, the grandeur of the Ranas, and unemployment form the skein of which the web of this story is woven right up to its surprise ending. It depicts middle class life in the Kathmandu of the 1940s and the economic and intellectual environment from which it s prang.

A Place Beneath the Pipal Tree by Greta Rana A Place Beneath the Pipal Tree describes three generations of Sherpa women, the men in their lives, the times they lived in, and the dilemmas they faced. While not over romanticising the past, when it was originally written it could almost have been prophetic in its misgivings about the future in an environment governed by status and taboo, in which women have to work hard to achieve the respect that should be their birthright. Greta Rana was born in 1943 in Leeds. After studying sociology, literature and linguistics, she worked as a social worker in Canada and then later for the UNICEF in Nepal, where she met her future husband.

This thriller gives a fascinating insight into Nepal of the 70s, when Freak Street was in its heyday, hash smoke billowed from every cheap hotel and no one slept with the same partner twice. There are mountain hideaways that unsuspecting traveller s enter, never again to see the light of day. Rupamati by Rudra Raj Pandey. Translated by Shanti Mishra.

Melvil stands for "Melvil Decimal System," named after Melvil Dewey, the famous librarian. Melvil Dewey invented his Dewey Decimal System in 1876, and early versions of his system are in the public domain. More recent editions of his system are in copyright, and the name "Dewey," "Dewey Decimal," "Dewey Decimal Classification" and "DDC" are registered trademarked by OCLC, who publish periodic revisions. LibraryThing's MDS system is based on the classification work of libraries around the world, whose assignments are not copyrightable. MDS "scheduldes" (the words that describe the numbers) are user-added, and based on public domain editions of the system. The Melvil Decimal System is NOT the Dewey Decimal System of today. Wordings, which are entered by members, can only come from public domain sources. The base system is the Free Decimal System, a public domain classification created by John Mark Ockerbloom. Where useful or necessary, wording comes from the 1922 edition of the Dewey Decimal System. Language and concepts may be changed to fit modern tastes, or to better describe books cataloged.
