Xue Xinran was born in Beijing, China, in 1958. She is a British-Chinese journalist, author and an advocate for women's issues. Xinran writes extensively on women's issues throughout her writing and journalist career. Sky Burial is Xinran's second book, about a soldier who is sent to Tibet to help unify the two cultures just months after his wedding.
Book Review:There is a rumour of a 'Sky Burial', where a soldier was brutally fed to the vultures. Xinran was fascinated by this story and more so when she met Shu Vven, a woman who had spent thirty years in the wildest part of Tibet, searching for her missing husband.
