Translated by Anna Holmwood.
Born a sheep dog on the Tibetan plateau, a Tibetan mastiff endures indifferent masters--and kills fierce adversaries--before finding a good home. The narrative stays very close to a dog's-eye point of view for Kelsang's journey through present-day China. While ascribing emotions to his hero, author Blackcrane is rigorous about keeping them true to Kelsang's species and (intimidating) breed.
