Reviews of Shrill Mist

"Shrill Mist is a novel quite different from anything I have ever read, a superb novel, a breakthrough in Nepal fiction. It re-energizes our culture even as it criticizes it. The characters leave an indelible impression on the mind. I was spellbound...." Dr. Bishnu Rai

"Ram Krishna Bantawa's Shrill Mist is a radical novel in which a militant female spirit struggles against the overpowering cultural geography of Nepal, both and magical. This is fiction that is new in every aspect." Dr. Tulasi Bhattarai

"A marvelous novel! I want to be Mother! Like art that has found a new frequency on which to reach us, there is beautiful rebellion here. But there is also a profound message told against the majestic landscape of Nepal: injustice is a sin!" Momila Joshi

"This is new craftsmanship, a remarkable contribution from a writer of our diaspora. Shrill Mist breaks the chain of our literary tradition, exposing the evil, irrational senseless inhumanity of Nepali consciousness from within an experimentally fractured, existentialist, even romantic story that ends as mysteriously as does all history that has yet to complete its journey." Purna Infada
