About the author
Rabi Thapa is a writer and editor based in Kathmandu. These days he can be found lounging about the office of the Nepali Times or scrounging around for consultancies that will buy him enough counters to visit the bars, high and low, that he frequents. He cannot stand the vicissitudes of Nepal, nor the relative safety of Western living, but prefers the former for now, not least for the ready, steady supply of material that he can publish. In preparation for this unwholesome existence, he tramped through six continents under a variety of pretexts before realizing, almost too late, that he could not call himself a writer before he wrote.
