Tragedy in Crimson [Libby] : How the Dalai Lama Conquered the World but Lost the Battle with China. Nation Books, 2011. Format: OverDrive Adobe EPUB eBook, Filesize: 829kB. Format: OverDrive OverDrive Read. Politics. Sociology. Nonfiction. HTML:<i>Tragedy in Crimson</i>&#160;is award-winning journalist Tim Johnson’s extraordinary account of the cat-and-mouse game embroiling China and the Tibetan exile community over Tibet. Johnson reports from the front lines, trekking to nomad resettlements to speak with the people who guard Tibet’s slowly vanishing culture; and he travels alongside the Dalai Lama in the campaigns for Tibetan sovereignty. Johnson unpacks how China is using its economic power around the globe to assail the Free Tibet movement. By encouraging massive Chinese migration and restricting Tibetan civil rights, the Chinese are also working to dilute Tibetan culture within Tibet itself. He also takes a sympathetic but unsentimental look at the Dalai Llama, a popular figure in the West who is regarded as a failure by many of his own people.&#160;Staggering in scope, vivid and audacious in its narrative aims, <i>Tragedy in Crimson</i> tells the story of a people on the brink of cultural extinction and the rising nation that is quashing them.
