I am thinking of getting a copy. Not sure if this should be the first book I am buying in years. :) not that much of a reader. But i like reading stuffs online. You should write more.

buddy you got the answer from the author himself. I too had suspected that the cover was for more commercial appeal.

Though “Naag Pokhari” (Snake Lake), as most of us know, is near Narayan Chaur – Naxal; but, as the book explains, there are many Snake Lakes in Kathmandu Valley. When Manjushri drained water from Kathmandu, the residing Naags took refuge in different available aquifers.

I was very surprised, but also extremely happy to see your comment in my blog :)
I sincerely loved ‘Snake Lake’, I had picked it up immediately after hearing your interview on NPR. I have,since, referred it to many of my friends. I will be starting ‘Shopping for Buddhas’ soon :)

Wishing you a great success on ‘Snake Lake’, and other future endeavors.

You did a great job. And I do realize that the lake on the cover is not Nag Pokhari… or any place even close. You can’t imagine how I fought with the publisher over that image. Authors rarely have control over what their covers look like!

Congratulations! It’s amazing to see the author himself jotting down comments on your blog!! Good job…great going :)

Nonetheless, I look forward to reading the book.
