Above the peaks of the Himalaya, Garuda, the divine eagle of the God Vishnu, sees the Lord of Death hastening towards an exquisitely beautiful little bird. He decides to save it, and hides the bird away - but can death be cheated? A haunting parable of love and destiny, printed and bound by hand, and illustrated in the delicate and ornamental Patachitra tradition of Orissa in eastern India.

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