A Buddhist monk takes up arms to resist the Chinese invasion of Tibet - then spends the rest of his life trying to atone for the violence by hand printing the best prayer flags in India. A Jain nun tests her powers of detachment as she watches her best friend ritually starve herself to death. Nine people, nine lives; each one taking a different religious path, each one an unforgettable story.

Blood country

Spisovatel: Ruff Ivan, Heinemann Educational Books 1988
Katalogové číslo: G4727

This suspenseful thriller, set in the English moor country, revolves around the arrival of a fugitive who warns of a threat of nuclear terrorism and a possible plot to establish a police state--a tale that seems incredible until events at the local nuclear reactor plant seem to bear him out. Added to all this is a triangular romance between the hunted man and a local naturalist and his girlfriend, as well as loving and beautiful descriptions of the moor and its birds and plants. This otherwise exciting novel is burdened with some gratuitous and graphic sex scenes that add nothing to the story... tvrdá väzba, obal, 280 strán
