"This book is everything. It's a romp, a fable, a myth, an inspiration, a teachable moment, a true hero's journey, a cautionary tale, and a fairy tale for an entirely new (or rather, ANCIENT) species of fairies. It's rare that so much wisdom can be found wrapped up in such comedy, such kindness, such lightness of touch. It's a perfect book. I want every woman I know to read it. This is storytelling at its very best, and also at its most important." -- ELIZABETH GILBERT, bestselling author of Eat, Pray, Love and Big Magic "What I love about this book is that you think you're reading a grand adventure story, but by the end of the book you realize you've been abducted by the genius Martha Beck who has given you a soul transfusion -you're more awake, more inspired, deepened, broadened, uplifted. I was amazed that a book can be so funny and so enlightening at the same time. Now I have to read it again, because I know that hiding within the book's oddest twists and turns, there is even more spiritual gold to be mined. Martha Beck has written The Wizard of Oz for our times, but this time, the story comes with instructions on how each one of us can find our way home." --ELIZABETH LESSER, Cofounder of Omega Institute, author of the New York Times bestseller, Broken Open and Marrow: A Love Story "Once in a triple blue moon, a book comes along that combines riveting narrative, delightful characters, and timeless spiritual wisdom: In Diana, Herself, Martha Beck has written such a story. Beck takes readers on an unforgettable, magical journey filled with deep truths that resonate, above all, in the heart. Who knew enlightenment could be so much fun?" -- SUSAN CASEY, author of The Wave, The Devil's Teeth, and Voices in the Ocean Even though this book is fiction and not self-help or memoir, Martha does not hold back her clear instructions for living with greater peace. I devoured Diana, Herself in the span of a few days; I daresay it is the most powerful book I've ever read for furthering my own personal and spiritual growth. -- CHRISTINE CARTER, Ph.D., Author of The Sweet Spot: How to find your groove at home and work
