Description
Ruth Ozeki's meditation on identity and self-discovery begins with a simple yet profound question: what is your true self? In this deeply personal exploration, she reflects on her own face, recording every thought and detail over the course of three hours. This introspective journey weaves together elements of history, philosophy, culture, and personal experience to create a rich and intimate portrait of a life.
Through a unique blend of memoir, philosophical inquiry, and cultural commentary, Ozeki delves into themes such as race, ageing, family, death, the body, and self-doubt. The result is a profound encounter with memory and the mirror that offers insights into the human experience.
This book is a thought-provoking exploration of identity, memory, and the complexities of human existence. With its unique blend of personal reflection, philosophical inquiry, and cultural commentary, it invites readers to reflect on their own sense of self and place in the world.
