The Tiger Man's Daughter (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Geia Laconi | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

In search of a lost father and of a path of light connecting us to faraway worlds.

Like so many dreamers of her generation, Laura, a young woman from Florence, travels to the heart of Africa in search of an authentic life, far from the hypocrisies of the modern world. There she meets Laconi, a young Indonesian dressed like a prince, with piercing eyes that belong to the wild. Together they begin a journey that will change everything.

Their daughter Geia is born in the lush heart of Indonesia, where her parents try to build a life together. But economic hardships bring them back to Italy's industrial, middle-class world. Geia grows up far from her father's homeland, always feeling the pull of something lost.

Years later, Geia's search to understand her origins becomes a journey of courage, memory, and reconciliation. It leads her back to her roots and to a mystical lineage in which her father's family is said to descend from tigers--creatures who, in an ancient time when humans and wild beasts lived as one, shared the same blood and spirit.

A vivid portrait of a generation that dreamed of changing the world, this is the true story of a woman who rediscovers her identity through her father and her past. Written in a voice as pure as spring water and as fragrant as frangipani, it carries us deep into the forest, to the source of the great river where everything begins--and can begin again.
