A scion of Nepal’s erstwhile royal family, Sheeba Shah is married to the nephew of the slain king Birendra and his wife Aishwarya. The only member of the former first family of Nepal opting to become a full-time fiction writer, Sheeba’s writing is marked by her determination to tackle subjects that are both fascinating and taboo. She is also the author of Beyond the Illusion and Loyals of the Crown. She lives in Kathmandu with her husband and two daughters.
Facing My Phantoms is a fictional rendering of the most tumultuous period of Nepalese history from the 1930s till the present day. Through the eyes of Sanjeevani, the story describes an ongoing socio-economic and political process that has been on since over half a century. It draws upon the painful transformation from a feudal society into a hopefully more egalitarian one.
