The Daughters of Joy

by Deepak Chopra

Struggling writer Jess Conover needs a job. Something infinite and unnamable seems to know this, because one Sunday morning as he is scanning the classifieds, he sees the cryptic message that changes his life- Love has found you. Tell no one, just come. When he meets lovely, willowy Elena on a cold November night in Boston, he is swept into an age-old mystery instead. At first he thinks that it is Elena herself who makes him feel as if his whole reality is about to be transformed. Then Jess discovers that this woman, who talks so knowingly about love, is the leader of a 'mystery school' going back many centuries. Jess is compelled to enter 'the second world' of this mystery school a place nurtured and preserved by a handful of women who can guide him on this remarkable adventure of the heart.
