In Elizabeth Kostova's "The Swan Thieves," the concept of faith is explored as something deeply subjective. The author suggests that faith isn't just a matter of belief in the conventional sense but is tied intimately to our perceptions of reality. What we hold to be true or real influences our understanding of ourselves and our relationships with the world around us. Kostova's focus on personal experience highlights that faith can vary greatly from one individual to another, shaped by personal experiences, emotions, and encounters. This notion expands the definition of faith beyond organized religion, illustrating it as a unique and individual journey shaped by what resonates most profoundly with us.
