Aprašymas

2012 was a year in which documented abuses of human rights reached alarming heights within Tibet. At the same time, there were an unprecedented number of self-immolations, as individual Tibetans made a fiery protest against the continuing erosion of their language, culture, religion and freedom, and the ongoing exile of their leader the Dalai Lama.

As a foreign teacher in Dharamshala, centre of the Tibetan exile community, the author witnessed the pain of her Tibetan students and friends as the tragic year unfolded. But amidst the sadness she found humour, compassion and a determination to continue the Tibetans’ non-violent struggle for freedom.

"The Yeti in the Library" is a testament to the bravery and character of a people in exile, set against the fascinating background of life in northern India. It has been described as "Easy to read, charmingly humorous, but with an important message."

This is the second book by Gill Winter, author of "Between Monks and Monkeys". Available as an e-book on Kindle, Nook, Sony Reader etc for $US3.99. Available as a paperback from the author For deatils please contact [email protected]
