Publisher Description: Alai has said that he seeks to demystify Tibet and to depict the Tibetan reality--the "noun" rather than the "adjectivized" Tibet offered by some outsiders. The stories collected here present various Tibetan realities, some drawn from legends, others inspired by daily life, by his home village, and by his extensive travels through the region. |
