There is another part to
the previous story that I didn't mention that I probably should have, because it is part of the reason why the story resonated on another level to me. Recently, I finished re-reading
The Venetian's Wife by Nick Bantock. This book tells the story of a young woman who is hired to find the final four pieces of a collection of exotic Indian statues for a very mysterious employer, in order to reunite them for him. As each statue is found, Sara (the young woman) learns a little bit about herself and eventually blossoms into the person she'd always wanted to be. The final statue to be found...
...is Parvati.
By the end of the book, Sara also finds her Shiva.
is
this just not enough…?
