Description
Astari and the Eagle
by Mary Inayat Khan
The touching story of an orphaned boy from a mountain hamlet somewhere in the East and the baby eagle he saves. It is at once a colorful tale of the youth’s adventures among hunters, gypsies, and dervishes; a poignant exploration of bereavement and courage, love, and loyalty; an account of the stages of spiritual awakening and growth; and most deeply, an allegory of the soul.
