Resumen del Editor

Dissatisfied with her job as a pharmaceutical rep and struggling with the decline of her long-term relationship, Grace, a well-heeled Londoner, uses yoga class to unwind, reflect, and momentarily transcend her earthly dilemmas. While pitching her company's latest antidepressant to the disarming Dr. James, she is inspired by his plan to study Eastern medicine in Vietnam and decides to quit her job to become a yoga teacher.

After studying at the eccentric White Lotus Foundation in California, Grace returns to London ready for her new life. But nothing could have prepared her for the motley crew of students she amasses - from the octogenarian industrialist desperate for distraction to the supermodel who indulges yogic aspirations when she tires of kabbalah to the American film star who uses yoga classes to conceal a scandalous affair. Overwhelmed, Grace soon finds herself relying on her bicontinental correspondence with Dr. James for solace and inspiration, his words hovering above her London life like a sweet promise. With an eye for the absurdity in every encounter, Alexandra Gray gently skewers our society's preference for a quick-fix nirvana in this chronicle of one woman's quest for love and meaning in a world numbed by materialism and psychotropic drugs.

Excellent!

I looked at the length of the book and was a bit overwhelmed, since it was a story about yoga. Result: I could NOT stop listening.

Excellent book!

Review from a yoga teacher

This book caught my eye because I am a yoga teacher. I was disappointed in the lackluster storyline. I kept waiting for the point of the story or anything that seemed real. The image it presented of yoga and the life of teaching yoga made it look shallow and meaningless. It’s truly not about sex, money, celebrity. A book about a yoga teacher could have been so beautiful, but this just was a little less than average. Parts of it were entertaining, but if you are a yogi, I’d skip this book.

Awesome

Delightful read. I love the description of certain poses on top of the fiction and how yoga affected the main character and affected the other characters. And especially how it affected different people and personalities. I looooooooved it.
