The Keeper of Memories

By Madhu Gurung

In the winter of her life, Dharmshila, the keeper of memories of her family of brave Gorkha warriors, tells her grandchildren the story of their ancestors who came from Nepal as conquerors and fought the British in the Khalanga War in Dehradun. As the family makes India its home, the sons embark on their own journeys: Ranu, the eldest, spends several years in Burma after losing his memory while fighting the Japanese in the Second World War; Biru, the middle one, is swept away by the adrenaline rush of football clubs in Calcutta; while Kharak, the youngest, escapes to Bombay, lured by the arc lights of the film industry.
