About this audiobook
The newest volume in the remarkable Kate-Pearl series retells the same mythic story from the perspective of the fleeting, flighting, breathing wind.
In The Black-Inked Pearl, Pearl of the Seas and The Helix Pearl, award-winning author Ruth Finnegan wove the engaging and emotional tale of Kate from three uniquely different, yet equally powerful perspectives. In Pearl of the Wind we circle back once more to experience this stirring romance and spiritual parable from another viewpoint - that of the powerful, breathing wind - the butterfly-psyche.
Ruth Finnegan’s poetic soul and passion for language breathe a deep and resonant life into her prose - engaging and resonant, as we once again explore the eternal nature of love and the ever-puzzling ambiguity between dreams and reality - all the better when you hear the poetry in this beautifully sonic reading.
Pearl of the Wind expands a series already compared to the works of James Joyce, William Faulkner, and the epic majesty of Homer's iconic Odyssey.
