Join us for a journey of resilience in the face of displacement. “We Measure the Earth with Our Bodies” by Tsering Yangzom Lama follows four characters across three generations of a Tibetan family. After fleeing China’s invasion in the 1950s, they grapple with loss, exile, and the fight to preserve their heritage. Witness their struggle to rebuild their lives amidst a shattered community and a young woman’s discovery that reignites their fight for cultural preservation. This evocative novel offers a nuanced portrait of the Tibetan exile experience.
