Review

This epic, told so quickly in just 200 pages, covers 30 years of love and loss, hope and redemption. Based on a true story, Sky Burial follows Shu Wen from China to Tibet in search of her husband. The real story is in her discovery of Tibetan culture and the Tibetans' understanding and appreciation for life and death.

Check it out:
