Overview

A schoolgirl, Dechen, in her teens, falls ill. Born to the peasants of the remote village of Thongkhar, her parents still dream and follow the footsteps of paying their care for her treatment with ancestral ritualistic performance called Rimdro. Modern method of medication hardly catches their attention and beliefs to cure their daughter's illness though it has been a recent development which took place in their village. The precarious health of Dechen swings between the patriarchal idiosyncrasy of her father Penjor and her parents' lukewarm belief in treating her illness with the method of modern medication. But does Dechen recover her illness in the end by performing Rimdro? Do her parents learn that they should have taken her for some medication?

Author Information

Tashi Gyeltshen is the author of a collection of poems titled Throb of Loneliness, a short story collection titled A Soup for the Souls, a volume of nonfiction, Value-based Modern Essays, and a contemporary romance novel A Pretty Souvenir of the Twentieth Century. Born on the tiny, beautiful landlocked Himalayan nation of Bhutan, his writing reflects the rich Buddhist cultural heritage of the subtropical/ sub-alpine birthplace. But, as the holder of a Master of Arts in Literature, he is quite exposed to western writing, and unafraid to step outside the box and touch on western themes and trends as well.
