Description: Rose is the youngest of seven children, meant to replace her dead sister.
Maybe because of that, she never really fit in. She's always felt different, out of place, a restless wanderer in a family of homebodies. So when an enormous white bear misteriously shows up and asks her to come away with it - in exchange for her sister's health and prosperity for her family - she readily agrees.
Rose travels on the bear's broad back to a distant and empty castle, where she is nightly joined by a mysterious stranger. I discoverig his identity, she loses her heart - and finds her purpose - and realizes her journey has only just begun.
As familier and moving as 'Beauty and the Beast', yet as fresh and original as only the best fantasy can be, 'East' is a bold retelling of the classic tale 'East of Sun, and West of Moon,' a sweeping story of grand preportions
