Poetry and literature
As a child he loved literature and poetry. William Wordsworth was a fixture of every year's English reader, and "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" ("Daffodils") remains a favourite. In Nepali, the Mahakavi Laxmi Prasad Devkota, whose surname he shares, is his greatest; "Bhikari" ("The Beggar") is the poem he returns to. Bhairab Aryal's satirical essay "Jai Bhudi", from the collection of the same name, is another favourite.
