  • "Autobiografie van een Tibetaanse vrouw, die na een jeugd onder moeilijke omstandigheden naar India vluchtte en na vele omzwervingen in Engeland belandde, waarna zij op zoek ging naar haar afgestane kind dat ze kreeg als gevolg van een verkrachting."
  • ""Soname Yangchen was born in the Tibetan countryside during the Chinese occupation. For her own safety, she was sent to Lhasa, where she became a child slave. Aged 16, with two Buddhist monks for company, Soname escaped from Tibet, risking death in an extraordinary six-week trek across the Himalayas. In this inspiring autobiography, set against the beautiful backdrop of turbulent Tibet and Dharamsala in North India, home of the Dalai Lama, we witness how one woman's indomitable spirit sustains her through desperate circumstances and heartache, including being forced to give up her young daughter. Finally, she makes her way to England, where she finds international singing success and is, at last, reunited with her lost family."--Back cover."
