The series that talks to leading witnesses of the century features an exclusive interview with the Dalai Lama.
Isabel Hilton travelled to
Dharmsala in northern India to talk to him about his view of the world and the events and issues of which he has often been at the centre since his flight from Tibet 40 years ago this month. His own experience of the century has been shaped by the violent collision between tradition and modernity, religion and rationality, which he explores through personal anecdote and political analysis of the Tibetan predicament.

By Kristian Smeds , translated by Hilkka Pekkanen and Diane Tullberg. The 1998 winner of the Prix Europa is a raw and witty insight into poverty, pleasure and the power of spiritual love and sectarian belief.

The daughter leaves home early, becomes unhappily married and eventually returns home to attempt reconciliation. wrth Sharon Percy. Joe Caffrey. Philippa Wilson and Carol McGuigan.
