The world has evolved into a bowl of variety. And, Ladakh, in spite of sitting in a little crevice of the grand Himalayas, epitomizes the melting-pot of different cultures, beliefs and personal truths. In this collection, the author attempts to capture this cosmopolitan spirit through six of his short stories. He masterly pits visitors and locals, who seem to be of different species if not complete aliens, and teases them into unique situations and circumstances. Each tale, thus, weaves an interplay of peculiar characters entangled in unique settings giving rise to oddity, comedy and, sometimes, strange solemnity. In doing so, he crafts a varied feel and texture in his writing for the readers to savour, reflect and remember long after putting down the book.Praises::'What gives literary depth to his work is that he has chosen locutions meaningful beyond a superficial reading. His prose flows. And single words are pregnant. The style he has chosen is concise and vivid.' -Prof Roberto Vitali, Tibetologist'Lhundup Gyalpo has a sharp eye and is able to find inspiration in everyday life in Ladakh.

Betty's Butter tea, a collection of six entertaining yet passionate stories touches certain chords of human psyche with its diverse themes and hidden motives in the Ladakhi setting providing a fair idea of modernity and tradition, realism and oddity, mundane and exalted. The homogeneity of characters, the vivid style, and the author's imagination, occupy the reader into a space of contemplation. The book is a first milestone in the aura of Ladakhi Fiction in English after Abdul Ghani sheikh's Forsaking Paradise(translated).' ~ Syeda fatimeh'Betty's Butter Tea ushers a new dawn in Ladakhi English Literature with it's vividly crafted plot intermingled with odd but lively character in the backdrop of green oasis and rugged mountains of Ladakh.
