This beautifully written book proves that tireless wisdom can bring an amazing understanding about ourselves and the world around us even today., "Anam Cara is a rare synthesis of philosophy, poetry, and spirituality. This work will have a powerful and life-transforming experience for those who read it." -- Deepak Chopra "John O'Donohue's unique voice and heart and his exquisitely elevating poetic imagination are immortalized in these pages, saturated as they are with his lyrical and contagious love of life and love for people and nature. Even reading it at random is profoundly healing and affirming, especially in hard moments." -- Jon Kabat-Zinn, author of Meditation is Not What You Think and the bestselling classic, Wherever You Go, There You Are "The moment I read Anam Cara...I felt like I had found a kindred spirit.
