Book Description
Will we make it? That's the question Kavitha and her cousin, Pallu, ask themselves as they trek through Himalayan pine forests and unforgiving mountains in Nepal and Tibet. Their goal: to reach Mount Kailash and Lake Manasarovar. The two women walk to ancient monasteries, meditate on freezing slopes, dance on the foothills of Kailash, and confront death in the thin mountain air. In Kailash and Manasarovar, the holiest of Hindu and Buddhist sites, they struggle to reconcile their rationalist views with faith and the beloved myths of their upbringing. Remarkably, it is this journey that helps them discover the meaning of friendship. Walking in Clouds is a beautifully crafted memoir of a journey to far-away places and to the places within. It mixes lyrical, descriptive storytelling with stunning photographs to bring to life a unique travelogue.

Book Description
A fascinating travelogue,"The Divine Wonder : Kailash Mansarovar" was originally written in Bengali by Snigdha Datta. It is a narrative of her arduous yet highly rewarding trek to Kailash Mansarovar in the company of some forty men and women,young and old, about thirty years ago. The writer and her husband together planned the visit, but alas,he died shortly thereafter. Nevertheless she made up her mind and applied to the authorities for permission to be included in one of the groups for the journey. The slim book teems with riveting accounts much as it reads like running commentary on her journey to Kailash Manas, which she had longed to see and have a dip in. The book will be of interest to those who intend to visit Mansarovar ( it contains useful tips for them ), no less to those who have made the visit, and of course to those who never will.

Book Description
Through the travelogue 'The Call of Kailash Mansarovar, Mr. Hari Om breaks and adds a lot to the travel narrative genre. Mr. Arun Prakash has written in 'The Identity of Prose' that 'a traveller must not only have a map of the destination, but also, a healthy perspective. Dr. Hari Om possesses that healthy and concise approach, through which, he presents a pilgrimage in a captivating narrative. In this journey, Dr. Hari Om not only contemplates on religion, spirituality etc. in a logical manner, but also. conducts socio-psychological analyses along the way. This concern also persists within him as to how 'the fog and sallowness of religion has stolen the colour from the beautiful environment of our country. The imbalance between development and environment has been strongly underlined in it. Kailash Mansarovar is situated in Tibet which is now under China. In the journey, the prosperity of China can be seen face to face with the destitution of Nepal. 'The question of health and cleanliness gets buried under faith and belief. Along with thrill and interest, there is amazing storytelling in this travel narrative. Along with the religious and spiritual aspects, this book will undoubtedly prove to be helpful in understanding the geography, society, environment, diplomacy, development and cultural-political relations of India, Nepal, Tibet and China.
