Refined over many years, these stokus are deceptively simple. They are to be slowly savoured: a new kind of music is being played. They point towards a deeper truth, a more transcendent way of looking at our existence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach tale is a tiny epic, a delicate world in itself. They flow easily, but burn slowly. When strung together they form a necklace of enigmas, and offer unusual glimpses of freedom.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57483447304565,"sku":"9781035930951","price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781035930951.jpg?v=1786178613","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/comic-destiny","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
