INTRODUCTION SECTION

These meaningful stories, which we call ‘Shoreditch Park Stories’, are told at the heart of a city that is in love with the wind.

And the person named Veysel Baba, one of the main characters of these stories full of meaning, lives in that building named Kinder House next to the park mentioned in these stories.

And another main character of in-depth stories, talking fox named Silent Foot also lives in his nest by the wall of the famous church named St. John’s Hoxton very close to that park.

And once upon a time; a friendship, which takes love, friendship and mutual trust as basis, forms between our heroes from two different worlds who come across each other and meet a very late hour at a cold winter night.

For love is the essence of existence and key to salvation. For love is the universe and creation itself…
