Somewhere between the kitchen of a five-star restaurant and the silence of a forest, a man discovers that the answers he was looking for had always been inside him.
The Inner Forest is the memoir of Valerio Flavio Sattin - thirty years spent moving between continents, languages, and kitchens, always searching for something he couldn't name. This is the story of what he found when he finally stopped running.
Part travel memoir, part spiritual journey, The Inner Forest weaves together the textures of a life lived across cultures with the universal questions that bind us all: Who are we when no one is watching? What do we owe the people we love? And where, exactly, does the forest end and we begin?
For readers of Eat Pray Love and The Alchemist.
