By Brendan O’Meara
Alexander Norman is here to talk about his book The Dalai Lama: An Extraordinary Life (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2020).
In this conversation we talk about the challenge of finding a voice, how even after 30 years, Alexander is still trying to find it.
And, you know, the Dalai Lama.
We talk about how his time as an army officer influenced his writing, how to surrender to the story, and how he came to know the Dalai Lama.
