Carole Stern on her latest book:

We live in an age where we feel out of control, victimized by the demands and direction of modern life. So much seems to be happening to us that is not of our own making. Often what we long for is a simpler life that is more tailored to our own personality more satisfying than the life we are experiencing.

So many people were saying to me "I just want so much more fun and satisfaction in my life and less of everything else", but I just don't know how to effect this change.
