This novel was first published in German by Ehrenwirth verlag, Munich, and is distributed through Luebbe Books as'Im Schatten des heiligen Baumes.' It describes thee generations of Sherpa women, the men in their lives , the times they lived in, and the dilemmas they faced. While not over romanticising the past,when it was originally written it could almost have been prophetic in its misgivings about the future in an environment governed by status and taboo, in which women have to work hard to achieved the respect that should be their birthright.
