Produktbeschreibung
The Monk lives a simple life high atop a cold and distant mountain and deep within a cave. He's a serious sort, though peaceful. Yet he realizes that somehow he's grown listless. One day, his serene life is disrupted by an exotic and fiery dragon who alights upon the stoop of his cave. The Dragon is darkly beautiful, all smelling of flint and ash. She bears many a scar from the ceaseless attacks upon her out in the world. She is angry and bitter and looking for a safe place to rest. The two begin a loving, yet tumultuous, relationship. The Monk and the Dragon is a fable. It's based on authors John and Eveline's true love story. Aided by charming wood cut prints, this book portrays the heart of how they met, found bliss, and then became troubled. It embodies a metaphor they developed through their writings to each other that helped them find their way back together.

John Clark is a magazine editor, tour guide and author of Columbus Uncovered: Fascinating, Real-Life Stories about Unusual People, Places & Things in Ohio's Capital City. As a former broadcast journalist with a keen interest in offbeat topics, John brings stories to life with a smart, casual style that keeps you turning the pages. John and his wife Jan moved to their adopted hometown in 1992, quickly settling into Columbus' premiere historic district, German Village. His past works have included history books, magazine articles and video documentaries about this celebrated, urban immigrant neighborhood. And he has received numerous local and state awards for his writing and producing. John works out of his favorite neighborhood coffee shop and occasionally at the couple's 150-year-old brick cottage, where his three-year-old Shih Tzu mix, Ruby, keeps him company. John and Jan, a former Mr. & Miss Third Grade in their native southern Kentucky, enjoy world travel and socializing with friends and neighbors.
