49 Days To The Sun (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780881458107)

The period between life and rebirth involves 49 days and three states of Bardo according to The Tibetan Book of the Dead. On a clear day and in a fit of bravery, Clyde Macey follows his unrequited love for a stranger named Syvia, only to enter this Bardo cycle when his car hits a tree. He can't let go of his life alone, and the Bardo is scary, vast, and painful. And, he's American; he hasn't prepared for this Tibetan ritual of passage. With the help of Syvia, her husband Will, and two other reluctant guides, Mel and Myra, Clyde can finally be heard, loved, reborn, and free.
