Tibetan Poet Woeser

Here are some links to information on the Tibetan poet Woeser. I feel that by taking a figure such as Woeser, who is married to a Han Chinese writer Wang Lixiong (both of whom are under a kind of house arrest in Bejing) the situation in Tibet could be made accessible to people who are unaware of the situation. Woeser has been described as a particularly talented and outspoken poet and writer in regard to Tibetan issues and resistance to Chinese hegemony in Tibet.

There is also a very detailed and sympathetic article ("The Quiet Heroes of Tibet" by Pankaj Mishra) in The New York Review of Books Jan 17, 2008. 39-41.
