Kusang never thought she would leave Tibet. Growing up in a remote mountain village, she married a monk and gave birth to two children. But then the Chinese army invaded, and their peaceful lives were destroyed forever. Thousands were tortured, prison camps were set up and Kusang's monastery was destroyed.

The back cover of this book says that the first printing of this book will be 100,000 copies.
My response is, Really? One hundred thousand copies?
Reading this book reminded me of the time I spent reading Three Cups of Tea. The writing, like that of Three Cups of Tea, is stilted and weak. I struggled to finish the book, hoping the writing would improve. It didn't. All I can surmise is that, much like Three Cups of Tea, the setting and the basic story sold this book.
I wish I liked this book more.
Thank you to the publisher for this advanced reader copy.
