A grieving widow discovers a most unexpected form of healing—hunting for mushrooms. “Moving . . . Long tells the story of finding hope after despair lightly and artfully, with self-effacement and so much gentle good nature.”—The New York Times Long Litt Woon met Eiolf a month after arriving in Norway from Malaysia as an exchange student. They fell in love, married, and settled into domestic bliss. Then Eiolf’s unexpected death at fifty-four left Woon struggling to imagine a life without the man who had been her partner and anchor for thirty-two years. Adrift in grief, she signed up for a beginner’s course on mushrooming—a course the two of them had planned to take together—and found, to her surprise, that the pursuit of mushrooms rekindled her zest for life. The Way Through the Woods tells the story of parallel journeys: an inner one, through the landscape of mourning, and an outer one, into the fascinating realm of mushrooms—resilient, adaptable, and essential to nature’s cycle of death and rebirth. From idyllic Norwegian forests and urban flower beds to the sandy beaches of Corsica and New York’s Central Park, Woon uncovers an abundance of surprises often hidden in plain sight: salmon-pink Bloody Milk Caps, which ooze red liquid when cut; delectable morels, prized for their earthy yet delicate flavor; and bioluminescent mushrooms that light up the forest at night. Along the way, she discovers the warm fellowship of other mushroom obsessives, and finds that giving her full attention to the natural world transforms her, opening a way for her to survive Eiolf’s death, to see herself anew, and to reengage with life. Praise for The Way Through the Woods “In her search for new meaning in life after the death of her husband, Long Litt Woon undertook the study of mushrooms. What she found in the woods, and expresses with such tender joy in this heartfelt memoir, was nothing less than salvation.”—Eugenia Bone, author of Mycophilia and Microbia

What do you do when you’ve already won the game of life? Share the secrets you’ve learned so everyone else can win too! At least, that’s what we decided to do. After all, we didn’t set out to win anything when we each took a chance on ourselves and followed our dreams.

We each took a step and the Universe rose up to meet us—taking us on a wild adventure up the mountain of success, health, fitness, happiness, love, fulfillment, and inner peace. Now, we wake up every day feeling like we’ve won the game of life. How could we possibly keep all this goodness to ourselves?

Prepare yourself for self-help like you’ve never read before. Books are magic. They can change your life—especially this one. _____________________________________________________________________ Such wise and life changing information in one book! The section on forgiveness was the one that resonated most strongly for me but so many other chapters were filled with amazing advice! ~ Cee Z This is a story written with heart. Our authors could have taken what they learned and kept it to themselves. Instead, they’ve decided to share and hope that something will speak to you. ~ BookBub/Goodreads Reviewer I loved their advice. And you learn to take it seriously because they lived it, but what spoke to me was that they told you HOW to do it, not just what to do. Speaks to your soul. ~ MG A Creative Rebel’s Guide to Winning the Game of Life was a thought provoking read. Invest in yourself and grab a copy of this book. It was insightful and easy to read and will help improve your quality of life. ~ K. Ramjohn I devoured this! I don’t even know where to start with this. It sucks you in from the beginning because the writing speaks to you but the way everything is laid out, is simple but real and raw. ~ Mari Loves Books Blog Whether you’re needing healing or struggling emotionally, or even spiritually. Whether you’re seeking advice on life, mindset, how to succeed in business, health. This book is for you! ~ Goodreads Reviewer
