Fearing he may not return from battle, a knight writes a letter to his children — a record of all he knows. In a series of ruminations on solitude, humility, forgiveness, honesty, courage, grace, pride, and patience, he draws on ancient Eastern and Western philosophy and the great spiritual and political writings of our time. His intent: to give his children a compass for a journey they will have to make alone. From four-time Academy Award nominee Ethan Hawke, an unforgettable fable and timeless guide to what gives life meaning and beauty.
