Crossline to Bhutan 

Bhutan has long presented itself as a nation that prioritizes peace and nonviolence. Their Gross National Happiness policy is known worldwide. What is not known, is Bhutan’s turbulent treatment of their refugees.

Crossline to Bhutan chronicles the history of the Bhutan leadership’s steps to remove those they felt were not “Bhutanese enough” from the country. Born in Bhutan, and despite a deep love for the country, the author was forced out, along with his family, and for twenty years lived as a refugee. But he set his sights on gaining a better life for himself, his family, and thousands of other exiled Bhutanese struggling against the harsh polices of their home country. Many are resettled but still dream of once again visiting their homeland and loved ones as the author stresses the importance of peacebuilding and reconciliation.
