Takano is the first writer and one of few foreigners to have stayed in the Golden Triangle region of Burma. This book recounts his 7 months spent in a traditional Wa mountain village, his participation in the complete cycle of opium cultivation and the everyday lives of the farmers. As readers are drawn into the life of the Wa, one dependant on opium production, Takano is increasingly drawn into an opium dependence of his own, unwittingly becoming part of the very story he came to tell. We are introduced to the Wa's leaders and Takano brings us a picture of life behind the battle lines of the war against drugs and terrorism. Size: 8vo. N° de réf. du vendeur 007737
