About this product

Product Information

The Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Color Purple , Possessing the Secret of Joy, and The Temple of My Familiar now gives us a beautiful new novel that is at once a deeply moving personal story and a powerful spiritual journey. In Now Is the Time to Open Your Heart , Alice Walker has created a work that ranks among her finest achievements: the story of a woman's spiritual adventure that becomes a passage through time, a quest for self, and a collision with love. Kate has always been a wanderer. A well-published author, married many times, she has lived a life rich with explorations of the natural world and the human soul. Now, at fifty-seven, she leaves her lover, Yolo, to embark on a new excursion, one that begins on the Colorado River, proceeds through the past, and flows, inexorably, into the future. As Yolo begins his own parallel voyage, Kate encounters celibates and lovers, shamans and snakes, memories of family disaster and marital discord, and emerges at a place where nothing remains but love. Told with the accessible style and deep feeling that are its author's hallmarks, Now Is the Time to Open Your Heart is Alice Walker's most surprising achievement.

  • a tragic waste of time!

    I regret the time spent reading this and am amazed that Oprah thought it worth ours! It follows a self-centered woman's nearly comatose journey of self-discovery via drug-tripping on a nature trip. I fail to see the connection of finding oneself in nature by getting high or wasted, even if it is herbally induced, and considering that a bodily and spiritual cleasing. I found myself seriously wondering if the author was wasted herself while writing this book. There was no cohesiveness, no point, no storyline, just mush. Sorry Alice.
