In 1994, journalist and author Xinran met a Chinese woman with an extraordinary story. For over thirty years, since the 1950s, Shu Wen searched the mountains of north Tibet for her husband, a Chinese military doctor, who was missing in action. Her moving and unforgettable life story brilliantly recreated by Xinran, gives insight into the landscape, religion and people of Tibet. At the same time it illuminates the complex and emotional relationship and history between the Tibetans and Chinese. Traveling thousands of miles, and taken in by a Tibetan family, Shu Wen lived a nomadic life through numerous seasons with silence and simplicity, motivated by her search for her husband. An unforgettable and ultimately uplifting tale of loss, loyalty, courage and survival, above all, \u003ci\u003eSky Burial\u003c\/i\u003e is an epic and enduring love story.","brand":"Penguin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43380131266815,"sku":"9780143125259","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780143125259_s600x595.jpg?v=1775594350","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9780143125259","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
