It explores the vulnerability of identity and relationships within this oftentimes polluted and quickly changing place we call home, our nation, this world. A theme of reciprocity develops between self and river, between the human and the elemental, and honors the First Nations with a belief that justice and compassion are the appropriate and inevitable outcomes to the respect we give to the Earth. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shanti Arts LLC","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45131767906455,"sku":"9781951651374","price":1075.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781951651374.webp?v=1767652267","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/oyo-the-beautiful-river-an-environmental-narrative-in-two-parts-9781951651374","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
