Produktbeschreibung

Fred Samarxhiu has inherited the craft of pack-saddling from his ancestors, a honed talent that gives his life purpose and provides meaning to the loneliness he feels in his unfulfilling marriage. He is happiest when sharing fairy tales with his precious blue-eyed daughter, Rita, and creating pack-saddles for his beloved hooved animals. When Rita loses an eye, Fred's superhuman effort to repair the disfigurement of this innocent beauty transforms him into a hero. As he embarks on a travel odyssey to seek answers, Fred's unconditional love for Rita reaches the pinnacle of the human spirit. During his journey, he realizes that he is not alone, despite the wounds in his soul. While courageously facing the great world without assistance from anyone, Fred is about to uncover an important message of solidarity, sacrifice, and triumph over destiny. Ivory Eye is the tale of a pack-saddler's enlightening quest to seek help for his disfigured daughter after she tragically loses an eye.
