| Introduction | Before landing in Portland, she lived all over. She learned kickboxing in Turkey, faced-off with a rhino in Nepal, discussed the weather with Queen Elizabeth in England, and was chastised by Mother Theresa in India. Portland has been her home since 2001. She is a founding member of the successful writing group, The Guttery. www.theguttery.com She writes novels about what happens when the will of the individual and the collective muscle of a culture clash. Her latest novel, Only Ghosts, is about the changes to a village in Nepal during the democratic movement of 1990. https://sites.google.com/site/kalirati/ |
