As a young girl, Tsomo asks her mother, ‘Where is the furthest I can travel?’
‘Where?’ her mother responds, ‘I don’t know. Where can a girl travel to?’
Caught in the everyday reality of household life, fifteen-year-old Tsomo is suddenly called upon to travel when her mother dies. She makes her first journey to a faraway village to light the ritual butter lamps in her mother’s memory. Beginning here, her travels take her to distant places, across Bhutan and into India. As she faces the world, a woman alone, Tsomo embarks on what becomes a life journey, in which she begins to find herself, and to grow as a person and a woman. ISBN 8186706798
