Tao of the Broken Heart - Wisdom for Those Who Have Loved and Lost
Description
We search for a perfect love. A love that will never fail. A love without limitations, faults, or imperfections, and a love that is immune even to the ripples of time. Countless books have been written about such love. Tao of the Broken Heart is not one of them.
Tao of the Broken Heart is about that other side of love. That side of love most of us know best. It's about heartbreak, yearning, and loss. It's about when never-ending love ends. When the princess is a shrew, and the prince, beneath it all, still a toad. It's about lovers falling flat on their faces, and miracles just plain falling flat. It's about giving up, giving in, and getting out.
Tao of the Broken Heart is inspired by broken romance and broken dreams. It gives voice to the feelings of angst, yearning, anger, and despair that so often follow in the wake of love. Tao of the Broken Heart shares commiseration with everyone from D.H. Lawrence, Emily Dickinson, and William Shakespeare, to Tom Cruise, Lisa Simpson, and Sid Vicious.
Sometimes bitter, sometimes sad, and often funny, Tao of the Broken Heart is not meant to be a diatribe against love. Instead, it reminds us that we are not alone or unique in our darkest hours. It reminds us that the way of the broken heart is perhaps the way of being human.
