This book gives a first-person account, from the field, of current conditions in an isolated, rarely described region of Tibet, with emphasis on the day-to-day reality of the interaction between the native Tibetans and the current holders of power, the Chinese. The regions discussed are western Sichuan and eastern Tibet, both of which are permeated with Tibetan culture, yet historically sites of continual and intense conflict between the Tibetans and the Chinese. This book is important because it fills a gap; almost all reports on Tibet today concern the area around its capital, Lhasa, an area where the Chinese can usually control the experiences and contacts between Tibetans and foreigners. This book describes the painful reality in a haunting and beautiful landscape far off the beaten track.
