Books By Tshe-ring-don-grub - Author

Tsering Döndrup is one of modern Tibet's most celebrated writers, the author of several novels and collections of short fiction. His work has been translated into numerous languages, and he is the recipient of several literary awards. Tsering Döndrup self-published The Red Wind Howls in 2006 because no publisher would risk accepting it. When the authorities caught on, all copies were confiscated and the author faced severe reprisals, which continue to this day.


Christopher Peacock is assistant professor of East Asian studies at Dickinson College. Among his translations are Tsering Döndrup's The Handsome Monk and Other Stories (Columbia, 2019) and Tsering Yangkyi's Flowers of Lhasa (2022).
