Condition remarks:
Hardcover - dust jacket
Secondhand book: generally 'Very Good' to 'Excellent'. These are books which may have some slight wear and tear or sun fading on the edges. There may be an inscription at the front.
In this reflective and spiritually rich work, Adeline Yen Mah — bestselling author of Falling Leaves — draws on the ancient wisdom of Chinese philosophy, Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism to illuminate the universal pursuit of happiness. With the warmth and intimacy of a personal memoir, she weaves together her own life experiences as a Chinese daughter with profound meditations on the nature of the human spirit. The title, drawn from a classic Chinese proverb about futile waiting, sets the tone for a work that challenges Western assumptions and presents Eastern thought as a living, breathing guide to modern life. Mah argues persuasively that timeless Chinese wisdom holds answers to questions that transcend culture, making this an insightful bridge between East and West.
