There are the satirical traveling books by Christian Y. Schmidt who worked for a german satirical magazin (Titanic) for quite a while. And his traveling journals are in the same vein. He's writing about all kinds of interesting and weird things going on in china but also his brushes with buddhism and what he thinks about the Dalai Lama (not very much). Well his thoughts (and most of the writers of the left leaning "New Frankfurt School") are mostly very negative and very often (IMO a bit too much and to naively) china-apologetic when talking about buddhism and the neo-feudal Tibetan clique around the Dalai Lama.

One of the promo images used to promote his book "Alone Among 1.3 Billion" is even used around here as banner.
