New Collection: Tibet Writes

An irony – and perhaps also a triumph – of China imposing its language on Tibet is that today a Tibetan literary elite are authoring highly acclaimed books in Chinese. The woman writer and poet, Woeser, is at the forefront of this New Literary Movement. Having studied Chinese literature in the Chinese Department of South-West Nationalities Institute, Chengdu, and worked as an editor with the Lhasa-based Chinese language journal, Tibetan Literature, Woeser has the education, background and talent to be one of the bright stars of China’s ‘New Tibet.’ Instead she is now unemployed, living in self-exile in Beijing.
