Winter Pasture: One Woman's Journey With China's Kazakh Herders
by Li Juan
An award-winning memoir that combines nature and travel writing; an eye-opening look at a disappearing way of life; the lyrical English-language debut of a Chinese journalist. Though Li Juan had trouble finding a nomadic group who'd take an unmarried 30-something Han Chinese woman with them for their winter migration, a small Kazakh family of herders agreed. Working with the father, mother, and teen daughter, she built a home using manure, gathered snow for water, endured nights with temps below zero, and took care of camel, sheep, and cattle.
