Playing Backgammon in Kathmandu

by Keith Santiago

Under a flat, diffuse overcast sky, a narrow Kathmandu alleyway opens into a sunken courtyard where daily life unfolds against weathered brick. A young boy sits on a low stone bench, his dark trousers dusted with fine grey lint from the rough masonry beside him. He holds a worn backgammon board on his knees, the red and white pieces scattered mid-game, while a chipped terracotta bowl sits nearby, catching the soft, shadowless light. The deep blue of a traditional wooden window shutter and the vibrant pink of marigold garlands hanging from a nearby shopfront, at the base of the moment in the specific textures and colors of the valley.
