The Song of the Stork de David Kherdian

The Song of the Stork

Autor David Kherdian
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 oct 2019
Poet David Kherdian offers a retelling of poems and songs drawn from ancient Armenian texts that describe nature's unique relationship with humanity. These songs and poems contain a glimpse into characteristically humble yet troubled world outlook. Upon reading these deeply intimate writings, we tap into out collective faith and draw from that place in us that is reserved for the essential and true-from our own unspoiled reservoir of spirit, that understands what has been lost and can yet be regained.
