People Called Ladakh is a heart-warming anthology of slice-of-life stories about Ladakh’s unique identity, told through the everyday experiences, livelihoods, rituals, practices and belief systems of its people. The writers who have contributed to this anthology come from diverse backgrounds. They include researchers, cultural practitioners, local architects, anthropology students, as well as a Buddhist nun. Through the lens of the people of Ladakh, and more importantly, through the lens of ‘empathy’, the thirty-two pieces in this collection paint a rich and intimate picture of today’s Ladakh.
