Set against the backdrop of the 10-year Maoist insurgency in Nepal, the story unfolds in the rugged rural hills of Eastern Nepal. It deeply explores the socio-cultural architecture, ancestral Mundhum beliefs, and psychological realities of a transitional Nepalese community. Through an artistic weaving of the past and present lives of local village characters—such as Lachhi, Kancho, Birman, and Hangdima—the book highlights the friction, struggles, and identity of marginalized ethnic populations
