Synopsis

When life has lost all meaning, what do you do? You grab whatever comes your way. This, in short, is Marie's story as drawn out of her memories, diaries and taped interviews. It takes the reader from Jerusalem to California, Paris, London and Turkey and is a very personal account. However, it also reflects a universal truth in which many will recognize their own story.

About this title

Review:

From a brutally and vividly told beginning to a peaceful and accepting resolution, this story skillfully reveals the spiritual journey of French journalist, Marie. Filled with a number of fascinating characters, it also recounts in colourful detail her travels to Israel, Malta and Turkey, in search of truth and her spiritual teacher Rumi. A book I found hard to put down. --Helen Hill, published poet, member of the committee of the Chester Literary Festival
