The first of Galsan Tschinag’s trilogy based on his life. Thuu it s book was beautiful and heartbreaking. It covers his early years in the Altai mountains living a traditional Tuvan lifestyle which is threatens by the Russian governments looming presence. I haven’t read any Mongolian fiction before this book and I’m very happy I did.
