ABOUT THE BOOK
Thirteen stories that drift like water lilies floating over the ripples of a river. Stories that walk along the eternal themes of love, loss and kindness.
The stories whisper tales of fragile emotions. From gentle schoolboy kindness to a blind elder, to a middle-aged dreamer, lost in the abyss of an unseen fantasy, a fiery tale of a lover betrayed, the wrath of a serpent mourning its slain mate and many more.
Each tale is a murmur, woven from longing and grace. Cradled in moonlight, they drift like dreams, where songs of babble meet the hush of desert sands.
And the river flows.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Celia Abraham was born and raised in the lush, water-laced village of Kuttanad in Kerala. A storyteller at heart, she has been quietly recording her memories, stories and insights, each one shaped by her unique perspective as a woman, a daughter, a mother, and a keen observer of life. She brings all those cherished memories together in the form of a book – an offering, a chronicle of her journey, of the life she has witnessed and the people she has loved.
After a successful career in HR in the United Arab Emirates, Celia now lives in Trivandrum with her husband.
