Yuddha Lade, Cancer Jite By Lila Sharma ‘Asmita’

Yuddha Lade, Cancer Jite by Lila Sharma ‘Asmita’ is a powerful life memoir that recounts the author’s extraordinary journey through Nepal’s conflict period and her later battle with cancer. Born in Dang, Lila’s life took an unexpected turn after she became involved with the Maoist insurgency during her youth.

Drawing from diaries she kept throughout the war, Sharma presents her experiences not simply as a participant but as a witness to the events around her. The memoir also brings attention to personal and often overlooked experiences of women, including menstruation, love, motherhood, compassion, and adolescence, showing how deeply personal experiences can intersect with political history.

After surviving repeated encounters with death during the conflict, Lila faced another major challenge when she was diagnosed with cancer. Written in an engaging and vivid style, the book presents a remarkable story of courage, resilience, and survival.
