BORN IN LHASA - NAMGYAL LHAMO TAKLHA


RATING:B

This is the latest read from my collection of biographies & autobiographies of Tibetans. In this case, it is the autobiography of HHDL's sister in law. I enjoy relaxing into a book detailing Tibetan lifestyle and customs, as I can relate to their culture better than my own birth culture. This account includes several photographs.

I would recommend reading this book to those interested in the Tibetan culture of the 20th century, entertained by autobiographies, and wishing to hear another viewpoint of the troubles caused to the Tibetan people by the Chinese occupation and destruction of their land.
