Read of the Moment
THE BUDDHA AND THE BORDERS
This is the story of the eastern Himalayas where defying chill and frost Buddhist monks in ochre move from one monastery to another.

Part travelogue, part political analysis and part economic insight, it incorporates the parallel worlds of Nepal, Sikkim, Bhutan and Arunachal Pradesh…
