About the book:
An Eternal Lamb tells an affectionate story between the author and a little lamb Salbus, which happens in her childhood. The language obstacles between the human and the animal do not in the least affect their friendship. Unexpectedly they can express their inner world through the emotions expressed in their eyes. The little lamb has once predicted a flood and leads the little Yerkesy from the dangerous area to a safe place. Their friendship grows over time. However, the most important purpose of raising a little lamb is to eat it. Eventually the little lamb becomes the dinner for her family, which has greatly affected the little girl's little heart. But her father has made it plain to her: the killing of a lamb is for the survival of human beings, which is the need of nature.
Yerkesy's vivid and profound narrative reveals to us a unique life - a simple and fantastic life which is characterized by faith in fate and by accepting the fate in all its manifold aspects , whether painful or joyful, and by following it while pursuing the freedom and value of life to the fullest extent possible.
