Situated in the high reaches of the Himalayan and Karakoram ranges, the unique culture of India’s northernmost district, Ladakh, has been radically affected by war, tourism and development. These stories by Abdul Ghani Sheikh provide a rare glimpse of Ladakhi society today. The author of several analytical articles in Urdu and English, Ghani Sheikh is recognized as one of Ladakh’s foremost scholars and fiction writers.
