About

A betrayed woman facing death, a most unlikely hero, and a sarcastic talking white tiger in colonial-era India come together in a magical story within a story.  Antonia Michaelis’ masterfully crafted tale moves seamlessly from reality to fantasy as it reveals the profound power of story.

“‘Stories are an excellent way to escape,’says Safia, who in this tale literally proves this to be true,” said Imdieke.
