Pankaj Mishra Quotes

Millions Of Nepalese Have Swelled The Armies Of Cheap Mobile Labour That Drive The Global Economy, Serving In Indian Brothels, Thai And Malaysian Sweatshops, The Mansions Of Oil Sheikhs In The Gulf, And, Most Recently, The War Zones Of Iraq. Many More Have Migrated Internally, Often From The Hills To The Subtropical Tarai Region On The Long Border With India. The Tarai Produces Most Of The Country's Food And Cash Crops And Accommodates Half Of Its Population. On Its Flat Alluvial Land, Where Malaria Was Only Recently Eradicated, The Buddha Was Born Twenty-five Hundred Years Ago; It Is Also Where A Generation Of Displaced Nepalese Began To Dream Of Revolution.
