Close to the Bone is an inspiring book about a young woman's journey to find meaning in life after being diagnosed with a life-threatening illness. Jean Shinoda Bolen, a journalist, tells the story of her battle with ovarian cancer, which began as a seemingly minor infection. As the cancer spread, she faced not only the physical challenges of chemotherapy and surgery, but the mental and emotional challenges of dealing with her diagnosis and the prospect of death. Bolen's courage in facing her illness and her determination to find a purpose in her life inspires readers to face their own challenges with courage and hope.; 8vo; 224 pages.
