Description
Ruth Ozeki's memoir, The Face: A Time Code, is a deeply personal and philosophical exploration of identity, memory, and the human experience. Through a series of meditations and reflections, Ozeki delves into the complexities of her own life, from her experiences growing up as a half-Japanese, half-Caucasian American to her studies of the Japanese Noh mask and her ordination as a Zen Buddhist priest. As she stares into her own reflection for three hours, Ozeki opens up a lifetime's worth of thoughts on race, aging, family, death, the body, self-doubt, and acceptance, weaving a rich and unique portrait of a life told through the lens of a face.
