About this book
Dance with White Clouds is the tale of a man who, on his birthday, is able to reflect on the past sixty years of his life with nothing short of complete satisfaction. Enumerating all the factors which have made his existence the very picture of wealth, happiness and success ? good health and appetite, a harmonious marriage, a thriving business, filial sons, the respect and admiration of his colleagues, and even an adoring mistress ? the old man, in a moment of lucid and profound self-awakening, is irresistibly drawn towards the only decision a man of his enviable position can make: he must run away. A Comic fable about the paradoxical and elusive nature of life, happiness and the meaning of fulfillment, Dance with White Clouds explores our hero?s desires for self realization as he attempts to remake his life, only to find, again and again, a constant discontent with the idea of contentment itself. Full of finely ? etched details and vivid with the sense of landscape, this is a novel to be read with pleasure and a sense of humble adventure, as it involves us in the conundrum of understanding that having it all is sometimes too much, and having too much is simply not enough.
