The Violet Shyness of Their Eyes Notes From Nepal
Häftad. 1993. Engelska. 275s. 23x15c. 425g. Mkt Fint Skick, dock med gåvotillskrift på smuts titelblad. Cultural Writing. Travel. Memoir. Ranging across mountains and memories, Scot's classic journal of her experiences in Nepal in 1990 now published. A travelogue of Nepal is by its very nature an intriguing piece because Nepal is such an exotic locale with such a wealth of material to write about, its scenery, wildlife, people, and customs. But Barbara Scot's account of her Nepalese adventure shines above the ordinary travel yarn. She has a flair for description, understands the language, and shows a genuine respect for Nepalese culture that infuses every scene and anecdote.
