Tibetan writer Tashi Dawa's mystical， imaainativei short stories， evidence ot an exciting new literary talent， make an important contribution to a Drofound- er understanding of the Tibetan world. Earlv stories "Plateau Serenade" and "Over the River* are straight- forward， delicate descriptions of Tibetan society， whereas later works， employing the methods of "mao- ical realism"， show the influence of Latin-Amercan writers such as Gabriel Garcia Marquez. "Invitation of a Century"， The Light on the Cliff and The old Manor" deal with the psychological tensions aroused by the conflicting demands of a society in flux where old values and traditional culture are being cha- lenged by the forces of modernization.
