Sky Burial by Xinran
A haunting, reportorial narrative that follows a young Han Chinese woman’s desperate search for her missing husband in Tibet, unfolding through interviews, eyewitness accounts and travelogue; as the author pieces together the circumstances of his disappearance she uncovers cultural clashes, bureaucratic indifference, personal betrayals and the ritual lives of Tibetan communities — including the stark practice of sky burial — producing a layered portrait of loss, resilience and the human costs of political and social upheaval.
