Book ASIAN HIGHLANDS PERSPECTIVES Volume 26

Download or read book ASIAN HIGHLANDS PERSPECTIVES Volume 26 written by Kar+ma don 'grub and published by ASIAN HIGHLANDS PERSPECTIVES. This book was released on 2013-03-22 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Karma Donrub's (Kar+ma don 'grub) life begins on the boundless Tibetan grassland in 1983 in Yushu (Yul shul) Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai (Mtsho sgnon) Province. Living in a black yak hair tent, Karma Dondrub begins tending his family's yak calves as soon as he can walk, in a grassland so barren that he is startled upon first seeing a tree at the age of eight. Charlatan livestock-stealing monks, anthrax, death, birth, happiness, and encounters with modern education create a powerful, unparalleled account of Tibetan nomad childhood in the late twentieth century - a way of life that will soon be forever gone.
