Elizabeth Lesser has worked alongside the great thinkers, healers, and spiritual leaders of our times. She is a curious and fearless investigator of life's perennial questions: What is our purpose? What is the soul? Why is it so difficult to love well, to be at peace, to care for ourselves and each other? After writing her incandescent book Broken Open, Lesser wanted to follow it with a book about living an authentic life. With her trademark humour and wisdom, she reveals the difficulty of being true to oneself, while also being in the right relationship with others. It isn't until Lesser is faced with trying to help save her sister's life that she gets all the way down to what she calls the "marrow of the self." This is the tale told in Marrow: How two sisters use the harrowing experience of a bone marrow transplant to heal their relationship and to learn what matters most. Their journey inspires us to examine why we are afraid to reveal our true selves, how we make assumptions about one another, and how we might clear a path to more acceptance and love. Marrow is an unflinching and beautiful memoir about getting to the very center of ourselves. .
