Prudentia, an eight-year-old girl, suddenly awakens in a dim cave only to discover that she cannot move her head to the right or left. After being suddenly freed from the chains, she turns around to discover that there is much more to reality than the shadows. Through a series of events, she eventually finds her way out of the cave and discovers reality in its purest form through a series of whimsical events. Although she longs to stay, she realizes that she must return and help others go free. This story is intended to introduce young children to Plato's Allegory of the Cave, one of the most famous pieces in Western Philosophy. In this Allegory which is located in Book VII of The Republic, Plato sets forth both his metaphysics (the study of the nature of reality) and epistemology (the study of knowledge). This is the first book in a series, and the overall intent is to introduce kids to the great world of Western Philosophy in narrative form.

As a young girl in Bangalore, Gayathri was surrounded by the fragrance of jasmine and flickering oil lamps, her family protected by gods and goddesses. But as she grew older, demons came forth from dark corners of her idyllic kingdom—with the scariest creatures lurking within her tortured mind. Shadows in the Sun traces Gayathri’s courageous battle with debilitating depression that consumed her from adolescence through marriage and a move to the United States. Her inspiring memoir provides a first-of-its-kind cross-cultural view of mental illness—how it is regarded in India and in America, and how she drew on both her rich Hindu heritage and Western medicine to find healing.
