KATHMANDU, Feb 14: Acclaimed writer Shova Gyawali on Saturday launched her third story collection, Mandakini, in a ceremony that celebrated the book as a work born of tears, struggle, and hope. Gyawali, who also serves as chairperson of Nepal Republic Media, described the collection as a reflection of lived experiences rather than mere literary imagination.
Speaking at the event, Gyawali said, “Mandakini is not simply the product of pen and words; it emerges from deep human emotions. I come here not only as a writer but as a messenger of untold stories of society. These are real stories connected to the lives of people around us.”
