The Old Amulet is a timeless and beautiful fable about nothing less than storytelling itself. With beginnings and endings, truth and meaning, science and magic, and an old promise kept, this is a story you'd wish would never end, and, in sense, never does. As salmon struggle upstream to the Alaskan lake of both their beginning and their end, a young physics professor brings her two children to the shore of the lake to spread their great grandmother's ashes. It is here, beside the Lake of the Beginning, that they will encounter and ancient Inuit man with a mystical tale that will change their lives.
