دانلود کتاب Living and Dying in Modern Tibet: The Time of Great Calamities

All the stories presented here end around the time of the Cultural Revolution's conclusion. Narrators' lives after this time are only described in a few sentences. If another installment of this work becomes a reality, it will be my autobiography that began at the end of the Cultural Revolution. My generation witnessed the dismembering of the commune system, the renaissance of Tibetan culture and religion, and impacts of the Reform and Opening Policy.

This book is a record of individual lives in the context of historical events while describing the local culture, economy, and intimate events of individual narrators. My childhood was little different from Mother's and Grandmother's childhoods in term of food, housing, and way of life. This allows me to understand and articulate the narrators' cultural background. We continue to experience changes transforming our culture and
economy on an unprecedented scale.
