Commentary Supposing Books Palpasa Café

Felicitated by Madan Purashkar in the year 2005, Palpasa Cafe, a novel by Narayan Wagle, is one stop for readers of all kinds and ages. The editor of Kantipur Daily, Wagle's novel is set during the 10-year-long Maoists insurgency in Nepal.

Opening on the nameless character referred only as 'I' is an artist and is on the verge of earning prominence with his undaunted skills in art. Few causal yet co-incidental meetings with Palpasa develops into strong feelings between the two. No, this isn't a romantic novel for the emotion is dealt with on a more platonic level here.

The story progresses ahead with unexpected twists and turns, and series of co-incidences. Though the scenes appear simple, they bear many marvel points that touch. The book has its share of message and visions for a youthful living along with the suffering we had to go through in the hands of the Maoist and the then government.

Comment On Based On Books Palpasa Café
4.25Captivating prose, excellent conversations. A good blend of painting, rebellion, romance, and art in general.

not a great book - the dialogue is barely above Harlequin romance. It is an anti-war novel in the guise of a love story about a Nepali artist and a Nepali expatriot returned to Nepal to report on the uprising. They both become victims of the violence. I enjoyed it having been to Nepal because it was evocative. It was a bit interesting as well because the author is a character in his own book. Still, if you haven't been to Nepal, give it a pass.

Maybe the translation is just boggy (if I look a the errors in it, it's not hard imagine the style must have suffered a bit as well), or maybe it's just because it's a first attempt at writing novels, but I didn't really enjoy reading this book.As I've mentioned before, I have the feeling Nepali novelists have a hard time choosing between writing a novel and expressing their feeling on the (political) evolutions in their country. As this one's written by a journalist I'd advise him to do a few

I think Kunda Dixit nailed it with his widely published review:..Wagles Nepali is simple, colloquial and his voice is genuine and sincere. Drishya comes across sometimes as being unnecessarily abrasive, but Palpasa is an authentic diaspora daughter caught between love for her motherland and alienation from her adopted home...Narayan Wagles book can be called an anti-war novel. It drags us to the edge and forces us to peer down at the abyss below.."For the good value of the novel, it is extremely

I've read books of all kinds. Romantic novels. Books on war. Thrillers. I've read books where the protagonist was a singer or a soldier or a woman in a war-torn country. However, until I picked up Narayan Wagle's Palpasa Cafe, I had never read a romantic book set during the Civil War in Nepal, from the perspective of a painter.The book starts on a metafictional note. The narrator of the novel, is a journalist, who is writing a book about Drishya, a painter. While he is waiting for Drishya, he

simply fascinating,the descriptions of the countryside are lovely..if u havnt read it,u must..a book to savour again and again...an unexpected ending makes d book even better.

Wagle's decision to write the story through first person narration while enclosing the novel with two chapters where the narrator reveals that he is writing the story of a friend is particularly interesting. Two things must be noted about why this decision changes the whole dynamic of the book. First thing is of course the witty and romantic conversations in large quantity, which we readers don't generally appreciate due to questions of realism. Here, this decision subtly imparts the actual
