Product Description
Product Description
Four nuns look after a band of geriatrics, eccentrics and orphans in the once impressive Everest Hotel located in the shadow of the Himalayas. A young nun who is to nurse the lecherous owner, and a young German girl wishing to find a relative's grave pierce the precarious equilibrium of the place.
From the Back Cover
In a small town under the shadow of the Himalayas stands the Everest, a once impressive hotel now home to a curious band of eccentrics, geriatrics and orphans. Into this small and extraordinary community comes Ritu, a young nun entrusted with the task of nursing the Everest's ninety-year-old owner, sometime mountaineer and flower-hunter Jed. Ritu strikes up a secret, guilty friendship with Brij, bodybuilder and frequent visitor. Then another newcomer, Inge, a young neo-Nazi, upsets the precarious equilibrium of life at the Everest.
