Vision Statement

I envision literature created by Nepalese writers residing in Australia, whether composed originally in English or translated into English, being prominently published, showcased, and readily accessible in Australian libraries and bookstores, standing alongside the works of mainstream authors. Every effort and action I undertake for literature is dedicated to realizing this vision.

Long Live Daimon Samser





He has completed his 92 years of prosperous life and entered in year of 93. He is non other than renowned and senior litterateur Diamon Samser Rana. Basanti (2006 BS), Seto Bagh (2030), Pratibaddha (2034), Satprayash(2038), Anita (2046), Dhanko Dhabba (2051), Grihaprabesh (2059) are his popular novel based on historical fiction.

"I am happy that I could meet with you." Yesterday he told me in his resident. I was there to extend my hearty wish on his birthday. I captured some golden moments spent with him via my camera. At that time he smiled and said, "Why are you taking my photos? I would appear as an old man!" Even in his 93-years, he is lively and energetic. His opinion is that Nepal would not be developed and remain in peace unless Nepali literature is developed. Therefore, he urged to promote Nepali literature and reading habit among Nepali readers.

I wish him a good health and peace so that we, his well-wishers and readers, can celebrate his birthday in coming years too.
