Detailed Product Description

CA, 1991, 2nd edition. 155 pp, photos. Nepali Aama is a delightful photo-journey into the lifee of a woman remarkable for her strength, humour and deep-rooted wisdom. Born almost a century ago into the Gurung tribe, her given name was Vishnu Maya Gurung, but her relatives and villagers call her Aama (Mother). She speaks with a salty candor about her everyday world-farming her rice paddies and millet fields, vigorously climbing trees to gather fodder for her buffalo, brewing herbs to fend off unfriendly spirits and trekking for weeks on pilgrimage to 12,000 feet in the himalayas.

'Author Broughton Coburn has gathered a treasury of photographs capturing Amma's spirit and that of the Gurung tribe. Having lived with Amma several years. Coburn presents an intimate glimpse into a culture alive with folklore, religion, and ancient rituals.' Tall paperback, Fine condition.
