Nepalese writer Ram Krishna Bantawa has lived in Hong Kong since 1997. He is known in his own country for his novels, lyrics, and poetry. His most recent novel, Shrill Mist, published in 2008, spans the period from Nepal’s first constitution in 1846 to the murder of King Birendra in 2001.Nepal has a 55% illiteracy rate. Many of the uneducated are women who have been treated unfairly for centuries. “Shrill Mist” focuses on the injustices, love and courage in the lives of two women. Bantawa says Hong Kong helped inspire him to write the book.
