A compilation of folk tales from the East.

Written in the style of ancient Eastern tales and legends, in which the author explores and breaks down the boundaries of the fantasy genre.

Just a thread—the dreams of a powerful man, the secret a child plants among the reeds, a woman wearing a single glove…—a thread found in the skein of memory, says María Teresa Andruetto. And with it she weaves these deep and evocative stories, in which justice, love, beauty, and wisdom find their outlet.
