There are also A Note on Sources, Acknowledgments, Bibliography, and Index. John F. Avedon has written for The New York Times Magazine, Rolling Stone, Maclean's, Parade, and other publications. The first full account of the Dalai Lama and Tibet since the Chinese Conquest. Despite all their efforts, the Chinese have faiIed to subdue the Tibetans, and, as this book amply documents, they know it. Thus, in 1978, they began to make overtures to the Dalai Lama, gestures that had let to negotiations for his possible return and to his announcement early in 1983, vividly portrayed in the closing pages, that he will visit Tibet in 1985. Most of the material in this book--the triumphs of the exiles, the devastation wrought by the Chinese, the inner workings of Tibetan Buddhism--has never before been made known. Certainly no other writer has been closer to this unique story, a story filled with tragedy, but suffused with a rare sense of resilience and hope. This work is now considered a classic, this is an eloquent and compellingly told account of the Dalai Lama's exile from Tibet after its conquest by China. Tibet, "the roof of the world," had been aloof and at peace for most of its 2,100 years. But in 1932, the Thirteenth Dalai Lama, in his final testament, warned: "It may happen that here, in the center of Tibet, religion and government will be attacked both from without and from within." By the time his successor was enthroned in 1950, the Chinese occupation had begun. In this gripping account, John F. Avedon draws on his work and travels with the Fourteenth Dalai Lama to bring us the riveting story of Tibet and its temporal and spiritual leader. Included is an extensive interview with the Dalai Lama, who speaks about the conditions in Tibet, the mind of a Buddha, and the events of his life. Rigorously researched, passionately written, this original edition of In Exile from the Land of Snows was instrumental in launching the modern Tibet movement when it was published in 1984. Decades later, Avedon's testimony is more wrenching and relevant than ever. First Edition [stated], presumed first printing. Khedroob Thondup (Jacket photograph) (illustrator).
