About this book
Eline grows restless in a palace garden where the king's children know only happiness. Travelers hint at another world, and a musician's harp gives voice to suffering beyond the garden. Choosing to follow him, the princess sees visions of earlier lives and remembers a promise to help others. V. M. tells this children's fantasy through enchanted forests, a cup of remembrance and a young girl's sense that comfort brings responsibilities to people outside her familiar world.
The story gives its spiritual ideas a practical setting when Eline helps children plan a shared garden on rocky ground. She directs them to gather flax for a rope, while a boy gains the power to hear fairies speaking among the flowers. These scenes connect the book's theosophical themes of repeated lives and shared purpose with cooperation, kindness and care for living things.
