A moving and riveting family saga, spanning three generations and dealing with their dark and mysterious past, set in a magical mountainous countryside, in a world of monkeys, goats and spirits.

Desta, a seven-year-old boy and Abraham, his middle-aged father, are on separate but parallel missions. The boy dreams of climbing one of the mountains that circle his home to touch the sky and run his fingers through the clouds. Abraham yearns to find his own long lost father. Each faces a series of obstacles and each ultimately realizes his dream, although not in the way he hoped.

In the center of this sweeping novel is a 2,800-year old Solomonic gold coin, a family heirloom that went missing along with Desta’s vanished grandfather forty years earlier. A symbol of the family’s financial success and personal pride, this coin is one of the reasons why Abraham grew up fatherless and why his mother abandoned her farmland estate and came to settle in an isolated, mountainous valley, setting the family saga in motion.

There are many aspects to DESTA that can be useful to the readers:
1. The things we dream to accomplish in life—how and why we should not let them go. The little boy Desta serves as a good example. Desta endures so many hardships and sacrifices so much for his dream of going to the mountaintop. He never quite his dream even when his mean older brother took him to the nearby river and tried to drown him under the pretense of teaching him how to swim. He didn’t let go of his dream when the same brother beat him up, broke his jaw and maimed his legs; when his father whipped him for letting the animals he was tending wonder off and destroy the neighbor’s crops. Desta never forgot his ambition when he spent a cold winter night hiding on top of a tree where there were a pack of hyenas sniffing for food beneath his perch.

2. The importance of looking beyond our horizon. This trait will open doors to: new ideas, new opportunities and new relationships. In DESTA, first it was the moon that drew his interest. Later it was the sun, the sky and the clouds. Later still, it was what he couldn’t see beyond the mountains and the sky that kept him thinking and dreaming about possibilities and better opportunities for himself.

3.Our fears, our enemies. They color our world, stunt our growth and get in the way of relationships. We need to learn to overcome or eliminate them. Desta’s mother is deeply religious and she interprets the unusualness of the boy as being possessed by the Satan and hires a priest to come and exorcise the demon out of him. Because of her attitude and belief, Desta could never trust his mother. And the tow never had a good relationship.

There are many similar life lessons in this novel. It will be great for both adults and young readers. In addition, the reader will enjoy learning and reading about the intricate and fascinating Ethiopian culture and the very visual and magical setting.
