The Wind Carried Me: The Secret Life of a Bonsai is a timeless and deeply moving tale-narrated by a 500-year-old bonsai tree-that explores what it means to survive, adapt, and grow through life's most difficult seasons.
Born on the cliffs of Geoje Island, shaped by storms, salt, and centuries of human care, the bonsai becomes a silent witness to war, loss, love, and healing. Its story mirrors our own-a meditation on resilience, transformation, and the quiet power of hope.
Each chapter reveals how lyrical storytelling and nature's quiet wisdom intertwine:
The Wind Carried Me, rooted in Korean history, Eastern philosophy, and the universal language of growth, invites readers to find strength in their own storms-and to recognize that even in the smallest of pots, life finds a way to flourish.
This story is perfect for you if you've ever felt bent but not broken.
