Items related to The Circle of Fate
A well-known Indian parable, this tale of fate, spirituality and death is a part of traditional oral storytelling. Garuda, the divine eagle, sees the god of death hastening towards an exquisite little bird. He hides it away in a dense forest, but can death be held at bay? This parable of destiny and love gently mocks our desire to control the future.

Review:
This spare retelling of an ancient parable from India serves as an ideal complement to the ornate, jewel-like circular paintings. (Kirkus Reviews)
