When the River Sleeps
When the River Sleeps | Easterine Kire
1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
A lone hunter, Vilie, sets out to find the river of his dreams: to wrest from its sleeping waters a stone that will give him untold power. It is a dangerous quest, for not only must he overcome unquiet spirits, vengeful sorceresses and daemons of the forest, there are men armed with guns on his trail. Easterine Kires novel transports the reader to the remote mountains of Nagaland, a place alive with natural wonder and supernatural enchantment. As Vilie treks through the forest on the trail of his dream, we are also swept along in this powerful narrative and walk alongside him in a world where the spirits are every bit as real as men and women, and where danger or salvation lies at every turn. Kires powerful narrative invites us into the lives and hearts of the people of Nagaland: the rituals and beliefs, their reverence for the land, their close-knit communities the rhythms of a life lived in harmony with their natural surroundings. It is against this spellbinding backdrop that Kire tells the story of a solitary man driven by the mysterious pull of a dream, who must overcome weretigers and malignant widow-spirits in the search for his hearts desire. Published by Zubaan.

Brilliant session but I‘m thoroughly enchanted by the squirrels playing on this amazing handrail (it‘s the edge of a roof balcony and the upper part of the palace wall gateway). They‘re just bouncing away & it‘s so cute!!!
