Cover of Ocean, as Much as Rain: Stories, Lyrical Prose, and Poems from Tibet by Tsering Woeser. The cover art is a detail from the installation "Biography of a thought" by Tenzing Rigdol, a vibrant, colorful piece with stylized waves in various shades of blue and swirling, multicolored clouds. In the center is a wooden chair on a small purple platform, positioned in front of an intricate circular pattern with floral motifs in blue and orange, framed by concentric rings of bright ornamental designs in pink, green, and yellow. The subtitle is in small blue text at the top, the title in large white text beneath the chair, and the author name beneath the title. At the bottom of the design, the words "Edited and translated by  Fiona Sze-Lorrain and Dechen Pemba" appear.

Hello @harpercollins.bsky.social It's impossible to order the new title by His Holiness the Dalai Lama here in the UK. Are they all sold out already or what's the deal?
