| 520 | _aActivists, rock stars, and Hollywood celebrities have raised awareness of the plight of Tibet. In Conjuring Tibet, Charlotte Painter creates a compelling frame for the issues - China's desecration of Tibet's religion and culture, its wasting of Tibet's natural resources for industry and nuclear stockpiling. In this novel, an American woman travels with a young Tibetan lama to forbidden terrain, a remote monastery. Her notebook records stories of Tibetan persecutions, the agony and humor of her journey, as well as a parallel tale of magical lovers and friends who undertake the liberation of Tibet. Pulsing through this exotic journey is a celebration of the imagination to overcome human limitations and transcend boundaries, even geographic ones | ||
