Synopsis of Tibetan Foothold
En julio de 1963, Dervla Murphy llegó en bicicleta a un sofocante Delhi. Decidiendo que el calor impedía seguir pedaleando hasta noviembre, trabajó en campos de refugiados tibetanos en el norte de la India. Utilizando extractos de los diarios que llevó en ese momento, Dervla describe la vida cotidiana en los campos donde cientos de niños viven en la miseria mientras un puñado de voluntarios dedicados hacen todo lo posible para alimentarlos y cuidarlos, intentando mantener a raya las enfermedades con recursos limitados. Enamorándose rápidamente de los "Tiblets" - niños alegres, que no se quejan, independientes y afectuosos - echa una mano donde sea necesario (en casi todas partes), e incluso encuentra tiempo para conocer al Dalai Lama y a su séquito.
