About this listen

The Flower in the Desert is a beautiful fable about following your heart. With a depth of sensitivity, it opens its readers and listeners into the great journey we all share, a journey in truth with no beginning and no end. Whilst very much an enchanting story, it's also a meditation, simple yet profound, which will speak directly to your heart. Lovers of authors such as Khalil Gibran, Rich Bach, Paulo Coelho, Antoine St. Exupery, and Hermann Hesse are likely to love this book.
