Prayog - The Experiment

ISBN: 0359370594
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 33
Book Description
I got the manuscript of Prayog - The Experiment (1976) from the facebook group for Nepali short-short stories called Laghukatha Kuno - The Very Short Stories Corner. Mr Narayan Tiwari, one of hte writers of the collection provided the manuscript. As I kept on reading the stories, they attracted me for their brevity and the message. The stories also remind us of the lives of people around the seventies in the country. The writers collected in this collection are mostly renowned literary figures in Nepal right now, however we can see their skill in weaving ordinary events into successful stories through this book. I hope this collection will of course quench your thirst of your interest for flash fictions. Don't take my words here for granted. Just see for yourself how they entertain and delight you.

Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 324
Book Description
Not a tale of firefights and blood, this book should be read by anyone who lived through the Vietnam era that was not directly involved and did not go to Vietnam. It provides a sense of what went through their minds, the conflicts and confusion and related fears. In a self-deprecating style, the author comes of age, examining these emotions and the guilts of being assigned to a secure area, of leaving a job before it was completed, and abandoning faithful Vietnamese friends. It should be read by anyone who cares about those who went and who want to understand more about them and their era. Forty photos provide a flavor of the year and the place. RAPID CITY JOURNAL 8-21-05 SAYS "MORE THAN OTHER STORIES ABOUT VIETNAM, THIS ONE IS REFLECTIVE, AND THANKFULLY SO. MUEHLBERG SORTS THROUGH THE MORASS TO FIND ENOUGH GOOD TO GIVE HIMSELF AND READERS THE FEELING THAT VIETNAM WAS NOT ENTIRELY AN INSTANCE OF MINDLESS OBLIVION THAT IT SOMETIMES SEEMS." ***Rapid City area may contact author for copies (605-342-4297).***

Most of them were written directly in English in the mid 70's, 80's, 90's and 00's. One poem, which I wrote in English, was translated into German by Dr. T.L. Eichman (an English Professor at Montgomery College, Takoma Park, Maryland).
