Nepali Literature - Post-Revolution Era

Post-Revolution Era

There are many modern nepali authors who has written groundbreaking innovative new Nepali literature e.g. Indra Bahadur Rai, Parijat, Bhupi Sherchan, Shailendra Sakar, Yuyutsu Sharma, Bimal Nibha, Narayan Wagle, Mahananda Poudyal etc.

As Nepalese diaspora is rapidly widening around the world after 1990, many books are published from different corners of the world. Diasporic literature has developed the new ways of thinking and 'mutual transformation'. Some writers and novels, e.g. Hom Nath Subedi's 'Yampuri Ko Yatra', Pancham Adhikari's 'Pathik Pravasan', offers illuminating vision of new models of identity.

In 2011 the Chancellor of the Nepal Academy presented Professor Michael Hutt with the Nai Derukha International Award ‘for his continuous dedication to promoting the study of Nepali literature in the international arena’.
