Leaving Mother Lake : A Girlhood at the Edge of the World Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

The haunting memoir of a girl growing up in the Moso country in the Himalayas -- a unique matrilineal society.

But even in this land of women, familial tension is eternal.

Namu is a strong-willed daughter, and conflicts between her and her rebellious mother lead her to break the taboo that holds the Moso world together -- she leaves her mother's house.
