With the help of an extraordinary cardiologist and the companionship of her beloved dog Sam, she avidly explores the natural and spiritual world to make sense of what happened to her. We follow as she combs every inch of her new home on the California coast, attends a convention of lightning-strike victims, and goes on a seal watch in Alaska. Ehrlich then turns her focus inward, exploring the tiny but equally fascinating ecosystem of the human heart, and culminated in a stunningly beautiful description of open-heart surgery.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGretel Ehrlich\u003c\/b\u003e is a poet and writer whose work includes \u003ci\u003eThis Cold Heaven\u003c\/i\u003e;\u003ci\u003e The Solace of Open Spaces\u003c\/i\u003e; \u003ci\u003eIslands, the Universe\u003c\/i\u003e; the novel, \u003ci\u003eHeart Mountain\u003c\/i\u003e; and the memoir \u003ci\u003eA Match to the Heart\u003c\/i\u003e.
