Janaklal Sharmaka Sansmaran (Hardcover) By Suman Dhakal, Madhav Prasad Pokharel

Janaklal Sharmaka Sansmaran is a collection of memoirs written by the eminent scholar Janak Lal Sharma, brought together and edited by Dr. Madhav Prasad Pokharel and Dr. Suman Dhakal. The book features reminiscences of over thirty notable personalities—including Laxmi Prasad Devkota, Rahul Sankrityayan, Bishweshwar Prasad Koirala, Hari Prasad Pradhan, and others—highlighting both their accomplishments and human vulnerabilities. Through these vivid portraits, Sharma not only captures personal stories but also illuminates broader social and historical contexts of Nepal. The work reveals little-known facts: for example, he suggests that the western boundary of Nepal prior to the Sugauli Treaty was not Kangda but the Ravi River. Janaklal Sharmaka Sansmaran is a must-read for anyone interested in Nepali literature, culture, and political history.
