ID3 vTIT2 Red Poppies - Part 1TCOP (p) 2002 HighBridge Company.COMM eng
Tibet, a tiny nation cloaked in mystery and clouded by myth, is the setting for this riveting family saga. Its author reveals that the land of his forebears is hardly the pacifistic little enclave solely inhabited by devout Buddhists that many Westerners have imagined. It is, rather, a far more complex and therefore intriguing land, where tradition collides with progress and individuals exhibit a range of universal character traits from virtuous to venal.
Censored for several years because its sensitive political content, Red Poppies was finally publiched in 1998 by a prestigious Chinese firm, and two years later won that nation's top literary prize.TALB Red PoppiesTCON LiteratureTRCK 1TXXX } OverDrive MediaMarkers
