Profeta

by Yuliya Dewolfe, Judith Mackay Stirt (Illustrator)

Overview

Profeta's young life has been full of questions—of the soul, of existence, and of love. As she grows, the questions grow louder in her mind, but the ears of her family and friends begin to turn away. Following the advice of a strange woman, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery, wandering the land for years on end seeking answers, but finding only questions. Along the way, she meets a cast of magical characters, both good and evil, who challenge her assumptions and guide her on her path. She battles her illusions of romantic love, reinvents her concept of friendship, and struggles to live outside of the constraints that society uses to restrain us. As her road unravels before her, she learns valuable lessons about trust, love, self-knowledge, and mindfulness.
Woven with Jungian and Buddhist themes, this poignant story balances fantasy with philosophy to create a surreal tale of discovery, strength, and independence.
