The Hotel on the Roof of the World - 5 years in Tibet |
This extraordinary book is more than a fantastic travel read, it is a survey in miniature of what Tibet was, is and will be under the rule of the Chinese. Le Sueur, a native of Jersey, has a unique understanding of the differences between West and East, a dry sense of humour and an unassuming but devastating critical sense, all offered with delicacy and tact. Entertaining read, not to be missed, ideal for gifts.
