The book begins when Princess Wencheng entered into

Tibet, and ends with a description of Tibet's today and tomorrow.

Su Shuyang said: "It is neither a general history nor

monograph, but merely a solution to people's maze of Tibet, in-depth and

straightforward, and it has a good prospect of Tibetan people's life and Tibet

itself."

Su said he can't believe in three aspects: foreigners

love China's Tibet much than Chinese people themselves, westerners' distortion

of Chinese culture and history, some western media's reports on Tibet. He wanted

to dispel all the misunderstandings through his new book.

Su Shuyang is a renowned author and screenwriter in

China. His works are mostly about grassroots life in China and many of them have

been translated into some foreign languages and Chinese ethnic minority

dialects. His books have enriched the lives of many, especially in the 1970s and

80s.
