The Lives We Have Lost: Essays and Opinions on Nepal
Manjushree Thapa
Penguin Books India, 280 pages, 450

Thapa probes the dramatic transformations Nepal has undergone from 1990 to 2009—spanning the dark years of the atrocity-ridden Maoist insurgency and counterinsurgency, the quagmire caused by the disarray of the democratic political parties, King Gyanendra Shah’s military coup and subsequent overthrow, and the launch of a thorny and uncertain peace process.
