Product Information
This is not the first time the Nepalese royals have been involved in palace massacres. The story of the Shah dynasty is studded with sanguinary episodes, of fratricide, poisoning and the disposal of unwanted relatives that would put the Borgias to shame. The fact that the monarchy has divine status means that its trials and turmoils are instantly shared by the entire country. If the monarchy is in crisis, Nepal is too. Jonthan Gregson demonstrates how one small mountain kingdom has been the setting for a classic revenger's tragedy.Product Identifiers
