Nepal

The Discomfort of Evening
by Lisa Choegyal

New Zealand consul to Nepal Lisa Choegyal charts the history of our relationship with a mountain that is not only the highest place on earth but also a spiritual place, worshipped by millions. Alongside stunning photographs by Sujoy Das, she tells a story encompassing the resilience of the mountain people, the lives of the sherpas, and the environmental concerns over the human dependence on the waters of mountain's receding glaciers and rivers.
