'Even as destruction and difficulty run as an unbroken thread through the more than 500 pages of this extraordinary anthology, so too do immense courage and forbearance' * TLS * 'One of the finest books I have read this year. It contains diverse, eye-opening and very good reading across both fact and fiction' * Nudge Book * 'There has emerged a generation of intellectuals, activists and writers, committed to building a new kind of Nepal. It is to the credit of the editor of House of Snow that many of their names are represented in its pages... If you want a book in English that tells you about Nepalese thinking, and gives a taste of the country's contemporary literature, you could hardly do better' * Daily Telegraph, 5 stars * 'A great collection' * Adventure Travel magazine * 'House of Snow [corrals] some fabulous literature on Nepal' * Wanderlust *
