Ruth Ozeki

Explore a profound journey of self-reflection with The Face: A Time Code by Ruth Ozeki. In this lyrical memoir, the bestselling author and Zen Buddhist priest challenges herself to stare at her own reflection in a mirror for three uninterrupted hours. As she records her thoughts in moment-to-moment detail, she delves into deep meditations on aging, race, family history, and the body. Drawing on her experiences as a half-Japanese, half-Caucasian American and her path in Zen Buddhism, Ozeki masterfully examines the concept of identity beyond external appearances. This thought-provoking book invites readers to look beyond the surface and consider the true self. This paperback edition is an essential addition for those interested in contemporary memoirs, Zen philosophy, and biographical essays.
