| Synopsis: |
Despite the determined efforts of the Dalai Lama to publicise the Tibetan cause, for many of us the country, its people, culture and traditions remain mysterious. Niema Ash was one of the first Westerners to enter Tibet when its borders were briefly opened. In this highly absorbing and personal account, she relates with wit, compassion and sensitivity her encounters with people whose humour, spirituality and sheer enthusiasm for life have carried them through years of oppression and suffering. This book gives a fresh insight into the real heart of Tibet. She takes us with her on a journey into this intriguing forbidden kingdom. |
