Hermitage Among the Clouds: An Historical Novel of Fourteenth Century Vietnam

Filled with clarity and wisdom, this inspiring novel tells of Tran Nhan Tong, 13th king of what is now North Vietnam, who abdicated his throne to become a Buddhist monk, and of his daughter, Princess Amazing Jewel who, with her father, was committed to the simple beauty of a spiritual life, and to practicing peace--even in the midst of suffering and war.
