This book, describing our experiences living in Kathmandu between May 1984 and May 1985, is about a country and a culture that has undergone significant changes driven largely by growing economic inequality and turmoil caused by governmental mismanagement and corruption and punctuated by the disastrous earthquake of 2012.
It is a country that we, who lived there forty years ago, may perhaps no longer recognize,
a Nepal that is lost forever. Still, it is a place of unimaginable beauty, to which our photographs are a lasting testimony.
