About Book
There are few books and magazines that have featured the translations of Nepali poems into English. But that is not adequate. More poems should translated. This book has at least the samples of the representative poem, from Bhanubhakta of the nineteenth century to the present published in one volume. This is the first such comprehensive collection of translated Nepali poems into Engish.
