Zanskar to Ziro: No Stilettos in the Himalayas emerges as an infusion of luxuriant landscapes and rich history, a successful evocation of a sense of place. The book is further enriched by echoes and allusions from all that the author and her co-traveller have read, as well as high-quality visuals. The acceptance that comes from having lived half of one?s life has allowed the travellers to wade across difficulties with a sense of humour?often self-deprecating?that twinkles through the book.
Once a successful journalist with The Telegraph, Sohini Sen is now a full-time travel writer and photographer. Sen?s other books are The Talking Table and Other Stories, a book of short stories for children, Yatra Pathe Rabi, a collection of travel photographs taken by her matched with Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore?s autograph-poems and Ladakh: A Photo Travelogue, a tale told through highresolutioncolour photographs laid out in a comic-strip format.
