Rent Devotion: A Memoir

Synopsis

[*Read by the author - Dani Shapiro]

A poignant memoir by acclaimed author Dani Shapiro. -- In her mid-forties and settled into the responsibilities and routines of adulthood, Dani Shapiro found herself with more questions than answers. Was this all life was -- a hodgepodge of errands, dinner dates, e-mails, meetings, to-do lists? What did it all mean? In this spiritual detective story, Shapiro explores the varieties of experience she has pursued -- from the rituals of her black-hat Orthodox Jewish relatives to yoga and meditation retreats. A reckoning of the choices she has made and the knowledge she has gained, Devotion is the story of a woman whose search for meaning ultimately leads her home. Her journey is at once poignant and funny, intensely personal -- and completely universal.
