Description

The manuscript of this literary milestone in Tibetan creative
writing lay forgotten after the author died in Canada twenty
years ago. A tip-off from an eminent scholar led us to a long
search and has saved it from oblivion.

Another Place is a witty and rollicking novel weaving characters
from a small’Tibetan refugee community in northwestern India
– a savvy young man, a pompous government bureaucrat, the
most beautiful girl in town, a clique of card-players united by
jokes, gossip, beer and male camaraderie, the shameless bar-
room cadge
-all interwoven with love, friendship, politics,
protests and hope. This genuine insight into the 1990s exile
Tibetan community is a compelling tour-de-force.
