The Waiting Land by Dervla Murphy

Finding work in a refugee camp in Tibet, the author makes her home in a tiny vermin-infested room. In the form of a diary, this book describes her life there and the journeys she made in the remote regions bordering Tibet.
Dervla Murphy was born (and still lives) in Lismore, County Waterford in 1931. Full Tilt, her first book, describes her exuberant bicycle ride from Lismore to India, through Iran and Afghanistan. It has been followed by some twenty further titles, including an acclaimed memoir, Wheels within Wheels. Her most recent book is The Island That Dared, a series of journeys through Cuba, with her daughter Rachel and her three granddaughters. www.dervlamurphy.com
