Beneath the Banyan: Stories from Mauritius
By Brinda
Beneath the shadow of ancient trees and along the shores of a storied island, spirits stir - watching, waiting, remembering.
In this evocative collection of folklore-inspired tales, the landscapes of Mauritius come alive with whispers from the past. A ghost haunts the walls of a colonial fort. A forest guardian reawakens to protect the land. A mermaid returns to claim a forgotten pact. From misty mountains to moonlit beaches, these stories explore the fragile bond between humanity, memory, and nature.
Rooted in ancestral wisdom and the oral traditions of the island, Beneath the Banyan invites readers into a world where the veil between the seen and unseen is paper-thin - and where every river, tree, and stone has a voice.
