Un thé sur le toit du monde

A short romantic tale that delicately blends elements of Tibetan symbolism and Japanese culture. A tea-time encounter between two iconic animals—the snow lion and the Japanese crane—each bearing timeless messages.

Eve Rastel, an artist who usually works with clay, has chosen writing and ink painting as the mediums for her imagination in this work. Drawing inspiration from her travels in the Himalayas and Japan, she combines this with her passion for tea, which began during a stopover at tea plantations in 1991.

A high-altitude escape for readers of all ages. Black-and-white illustrations set against a backdrop of eternal snow, with a graceful flight that opens our hearts to the sharing of age-old cultures.

A little book to give as a gift, to enjoy, and to take on a journey…
