The author explores China’s remote borderlands—Xinjiang, Tibet, Yunnan, and the northern frontier—offering a deeper look into the farthest reaches of this vast country. As the old Chinese adage goes, “The mountains are high, and the emperor is far away,” a sentiment that still resonates in these distant regions. This is a compelling and in-depth portrait of modern China beyond its urban centers.
