Hamsin: A Father to Son Journey is a tender, luminous bedtime odyssey through the land of Israel-told from the voice of a father to his son, night after night, in the quiet of a mountain village in southern France. As the fireplace crackles and the world outside stills, stories unfold: not of fairy tales or dragons, but of ancient stones that whisper, rivers that remember, and mountains where prophets once stood.
Guided by memory and love, the father takes his child on a journey across sacred geography-Tel Aviv, Galilee, the Judean Desert, Jerusalem-each place rich with history, faith, and meaning. Through intimate storytelling, spiritual depth, and historical detail, these chapters become more than tales; they become footprints on the soul.
Inspired by real-life travels, family roots, and the charismatic storytelling of her ex-husband-whose ability to bring the land to life made each trip feel like living inside a movie-Yulia Sheveleva offers a heartfelt tribute to childhood, memory, and the enduring power of place. This is not only a story about a land, but about the legacy of love we pass from one generation to the next.
