With emotional precision and narrative subtlety, The Royal Ghosts features characters attempting to reconcile their true desires with the forces at work in Nepalese society. Against the milieu of the violent Maoist insurgencies that have claimed thousands of lives, these people struggle with their duty to aging parents, an oppressive caste system and the complexities of arranged marriage.Examining Kathmandu during a time of political crisis and cultural transformation and the effects of the city on individual consciousness, The Royal Ghosts is a brilliant novel on how peace and understanding can be obtained from the most unexpected sources.

Samrat Upadhyay was born and raised in Kathmandu, moving to the United States of America at the age of twenty-one. His work has appeared in The Best American Short Stories and The Best of the Fiction Workshops. He is also the author of Arresting God in Kathmandu, a Whiting Award winner, The Royal Ghosts and The Guru of Love. The first Nepalese writer writing in English to be published in the west, he currently lives in Cleveland with his wife and daughter and is a professor at Baldwin-Wallace College.
