Journalist and young writer Kshitij Samarpan's first novel 'Torkeen' has been published.
The story of birth, marriage, death-rites, lifestyle, migration, culture, tradition and the social, cultural and geographical history of monasteries and palaces of Upper Mustang has been researched and presented in a mythic style in the novel. The writer Samarpan says about the
novel, "I have written a story about slums that are crumbling, mountains that are melting, relationships that are melting, customs, traditions and culture that are disappearing." Through this novel, I have tried to bring the reader back to the roots of human civilization. In the
novel, Chewang and Kunsang, the main characters, depict the ups and downs of human life, dreams and relationships realistically.
In the local Lhowa language, 'Torkeen' means to disappear, to disappear. The simple and poetic language style and the local style of the characters have made the novel more interesting and readable. Publisher Bookhill said that through this novel published in the list of
ambitious books, a good new writer has emerged in Nepali literature.
Born in Jajarkot, Kshitij Samarpan is active in writing songs, ghazals and stories. He was also awarded the 'Barakhari Story Writing Competition' (2076 and 2077). He is also the composer of the tenth national song. The market price of the
