Description
Rod Nordland's Waiting for the Monsoon is a powerful memoir of confronting death and finding true happiness in the face of adversity. After decades of reporting on conflict and tragedy, Nordland was diagnosed with a fatal brain tumor, forcing him to re-evaluate his life and relationships. In this remarkable story, Nordland shares his journey of self-discovery and healing, as he reconnects with his estranged children and rekindles a lost friendship. With tremendous clarity and courage, he reveals how facing the unknown can transform experience and change our relationship to the world around us. A poignant and inspiring account of one man's struggle to come to terms with his own mortality, Waiting for the Monsoon is a testament to the human capacity for resilience and generosity in the face of adversity.
