Author Description

Into a world of stolen dreams, broken masks, and faithless hearts, travels LITTLE FRIEND. His humble vision allows him to become for others an opener of doors, a finder of rainbows, a polisher of stars, a healer of hearts, and a mender of things broken and discarded. This is the allegorical adventure of the human heart and soul travelling through life, yearning for understanding. This lyrical and poetic text, revealing many layers of the path of life and its real and symbolic events, is complemented by more than 48 full color reproductions of the world of Valdes Galindo, whose paintings have been described as modern icons, powerful visions of the soul, a perfect blending of imagination, myth and spiritual insight. Rojas is hailed in his native Mexico as the contemporary successor in the literary tradition of Gibran, Saint-Exupery and Tagore. This is his classic bestselling work. There are moments of magic in the story of LITTLE FRIEND who is Everyman, the universal spiritual seeker. Each tiny encounter is a mythic journey into the hidden wisdom of creativity, love, hope, happiness, gratitude and sincerity. This is a book to be treasured for years, a companion for everyone who seeks to live with deep feeling and appreciation for life.
