Synopsis
In a city levitating among the clouds, a translator of ancient languages casts his mind down to the surface of a long uninhabited earth and six thousand years into the past to tell the tale of Asha, a possibly mythical, possibly factual princess, or Raajakumaaree in the language of her era. Asha's life of beauty and privilege, the compensation for marriage to an abusive merchant prince, ultimately sets her on an epic yaatra, a trek of body and mind, to seek self-knowledge. Along the way she must imagine a path beyond the totality of her past mistakes--before hope itself comes to an end. A novel of fantasy, spiritual exploration, and adventure, Asha Of The Air interweaves European chivalric tradition with the mysticism of South Asia's sacred texts to craft an immersive world where legend and science, history and myth come together in a tale of intense emotionality.Asha's story is that of a young woman trying to conceive a new female archetype for herself, one that transcends the norms of gender and wedlock while still embracing all the rightful powers of femininity. It is strikingly relevant to the way that today we are renegotiating the balance of power between the sexes and learning how to reconcile the urge to dominate with the need to love., In a city levitating among the clouds, a translator of ancient languages casts his mind down to the surface of a long uninhabited earth and six thousand years into the past to tell the tale of Asha, a possibly mythical, possibly factual princess, or Raajakumaaree in the language of her era.

- i***- (21)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Six derniers moisAchat vérifiéI am very happy with this seller. The item took a little while to get to me but it’s worth it as I received it at a great price. I had actually ordered a second item from the same seller not realizing my husband had already ordered me this one that had already shipped. As soon as I realized this, I messaged the seller before this one shipped and they cancelled the order and credited me right away. Thank you!
