The Man in the Empty Boat

The Man in the Empty Boat

From the author of Iron & Silk comes a moving memoir of love and family, loss and spiritual yearning

Anxiety has always been part of Mark Salzmanâ€™s life: He was born into a family as nervous as rabbits, people with extra angst coded into their genes. As a young man he found solace through martial arts, meditation, tai chi, and rigorous writing schedules, but as he approaches midlife, he confronts a year of catastrophe. First, Salzman suffers a crippling case of writerâ€™s block; then a sudden family tragedy throws his life into chaos. Overwhelmed by terrifying panic attacks, the author begins a search for equanimity that ultimately leads to an epiphany from a most unexpected source.
Â
The Man in the Empty Boat is a witty and touching account of a skepticâ€™s spiritual quest, a story of one manâ€™s journey to find peace as a father, a writer, and an individual.
