Inspired by people who have taken journeys in search of the contemplative life, Zoe sets out on her own explorations. Early experience in a convent leads her to cross continents and learn new languages. Images from Egypt arise, ancient portraits, ruined temples, a wandering monk and meetings with Zen masters. Then clouds begin to gather: the loss of her job is followed by debilitating migraines and deaths in the family... Life seems to be falling apart and treatments are not working. Now there is only one choice left: to give up hoping for a cure and change her way of seeing.From the silence of the cloister to the queue in the supermarket, contemplation emerges through the Book of the Heart as multi-faceted and many-layered; less a practice or a state to be achieved and more a process of deepening intimacy with senses we already have.
