Michelle Adam
Child of Duende: A Journey of the Spirit is a magical story of a young girl in Málaga, Spain whose grandmother names her Duende, a word meaning the spirit of the earth one must awaken from within. She dances with Gypsies, travels with a nature spirit below the sea, and has dreams that transform her reality and that of Ingrid, a journalist who travels to her childhood home of Málaga to cover the story of supernatural vines. Ultimately, Ingrid’s return home reveals a truth that has been buried in the ground for millennia, and offers a story that New York Times Bestselling Author John Perkins described as awakening “who we are capable of being.” Also available in Spanish/Tambien disponible en Español
