review 1: Оригиналното заглавие "Across many mountains" ми допада повече от преводното "Три дъщери на Тибет".Книгата прочетох бавно, с интерес и с онова тягостно чувство как различни красиви неща - независимо дали става дума за храмове, паметници или духовни съкровища - са унищожавани и потъпкани от хора, ограничени и жалки с агресивния си разрушителен манталитет.
review 2: Liked it better than expected. Expected something of the refugee memoir genre: native life, violence forcing migration, harrowin
... moreg escape, horrors of refugee camps, reconstruction of life, eventual return to native land. AMM has all these elements, but it has a unique personal story that transcends the genre and made this a good read. Tibet, of course, located on the Roof of the World with its unique cultural and religious history is an enticing locale for a good story. The three generations of women featured are all strong women. The narrator is primarily the grand-daughter -- actress, film director (?), activist, international citizen. less
