"In your absence you taught me presence." In a quiet room, a father tells his daughter a story. In the years that follow, that story becomes a legacy. The Cloud-Shepherd is a mythic meditation on grief, estrangement, and the quiet choreography of continuation. Through breath, silence, and soft transformation, this book invites readers to witness—not resolve—the ache of loss and the beauty of presence reclaimed. For anyone who has stood vigil. For anyone who has whispered, "Tell me a story." This is the one.
