The boy must redeem himself by carrying a talking corpse full of wondrous tales on a long journey, without himself speaking a word. These 25 tales of intrigue and magic provide the reader with a window through which to view ancient Tibetan culture. Within them, you will encounter heroes and villains, fearsome witches, murderous demons, and clever tricksters with a uniquely Tibetan humor. Songs, riddles, jokes, and sayings make the stories come alive as they unfold against the background of everyday Tibet—its farmers and nomads, kings and magical beings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\"Through these tales, the ethical principles of right living are passed on from generation to generation.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9781566566322\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Interlink Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":40590968750286,"sku":"9781566566322","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7029\/7806\/products\/O_e1be9a7c-6b35-498c-b40e-5bfa48d3a13f.jpg?v=1637745962","url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9781566566322","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
