The unfinished story of Victoria Subirana takes off with the narrative of a young teacher embarking on a mission of solidarity and peaks with the consolidation of a universal educational project for the most underprivileged and marginalised children of Nepal, to whom she has granted the kind of teaching that anyone would desire for their sons and daughters.
In her endeavour to fulfill her ideals, Victoria had to confront all types of difficulties and to prevent herself of being deported from Nepal, accepted a convenience marriage with a Sherpa.
The story of the author's thrilling professional and personal adventures allow for an extraordinary book, where the reader will encounter not only a wonderful and strange love story, mixed with a fascinating tale of travel, but above all, an informative and convincing vision of the most cruel realities in the Third World.
The book inspired Media Films and Universal Pictures to produce the motion picture Kathmandu: A Mirror in the Sky.
