Inside the book

One journey, told in three movements

Rooted in Indian cultural and spiritual thought, the stories move between realism, symbolism, humour and the mystical. Together they travel from the conflicts of society, through the voices of nature, to the mysteries of the spirit.

  • Movement one

    Among people

    Human dilemmas of faith, identity, ritual and belonging. Characters caught between what they were taught and what they feel.

  • Movement two

    Through nature

    A rosebud, a sparrow, a clam and other unlikely heroes become mirrors for human behaviour and purpose.

  • Movement three

    Into the self

    Turning inward to kindness, surrender, ego and self-discovery, where each story invites the reader to look within.
