About this book

Summary

Salt of the Hollow Saints follows a young narrator chosen by fate to inherit the burden of long-forgotten saints, whose hollow statues weep salt as remnants of their suffering. Raised among pilgrims and priests, he discovers that sainthood was not a gift but a breaking—suffering preserved in salt. Haunted by visions and voices of the dead, he becomes a living vessel of their grief, defying the priests who silence truth. As the cathedral crumbles, he learns that hollowness is not death but remembrance, carrying forward the saints’ echoes. The tale is a lyrical meditation on grief, memory, and the sacred weight of sorrow.
