Tibetan writer Zhang Zuwen's latest work "The Riverside of Lhasa" was published by the Beijing-based Writers Publishing House this month.
The novel was Zhang's second book following "Lhasa, How Have You Been?" Both novels depict the lives of Tibetans and people from other ethnic groups.
"The Riverside of Lhasa" tells the story of a woman and her mother managing an inn on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau around the beginning of the 21st century, just before the construction of the Qinghai-Tibet Railway.
"The novel is an ode to ethnic unity and expresses a deep love for life and high expectations for a bright future," read a comment on "China Tibet Online."
"I think a good work should be good for everyone who reads it," Zhang said.
