Roots and Wings (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798231686407)

Roots and Wings

Amara's world is defined by the turquoise lagoon of her Fijian island and the ancient banyan tree that has sheltered her dreams. Here, she is an artist, a daughter, a part of a vibrant tapestry of community and tradition. But the horizon whispers of something more, a call she can no longer ignore. When an acceptance letter from a prestigious Parisian art school arrives, it tears her between two futures: the rooted life she knows and the woman she yearns to become.

In the cold, grey light of Paris, Amara's art-and her very identity-is challenged, broken down, and dismissed. Lost between two worlds and belonging to neither, she must navigate heartbreak, alienation, and artistic failure to unearth a truth more profound than she ever imagined. Roots and Wings is a breathtakingly immersive journey from a South Pacific paradise to the artistic heart of Europe, a poignant exploration of the cost of dreams, the pull of home, and the beautiful, painful journey to find where we truly belong.
