Detailed information

Product detailed description

The Three Golden Keys is a deeply personal and allegorical picture book by internationally acclaimed author and illustrator Peter Sís. Thrown off course by a violent storm, a man travelling in a hot-air balloon finds himself back in the Prague of his youth.

Guided by a mysterious black cat with eyes of fire, he wanders through the city’s silent streets and monuments in search of the three golden keys that will unlock the door to his childhood home and restore life to the city. Each step is steeped in symbolism, memory and myth.

Written for the author’s daughter, the book is a celebration of Prague’s cultural heritage and a meditation on exile, return and belonging. Richly illustrated and emotionally resonant, The Three Golden Keys speaks to readers of all ages as a timeless reflection on home and identity.
