Award-winning author, alpinist and Buddhist practitioner Michael Schauch explores the connections between nature, spirituality and human experience in his writing. His first book, A Story of Karma: Finding Love and Truth in the Lost Valley of the Himalaya (Rocky Moutain Books, 2020), earned praise from writers and reviewers including Wade Davis and Kirkus Reviews. A longtime mentor to Tibetan Buddhist youth in Nepal and a member of the Explorers Club, Schauch lives with his wife in Squamish, BC. In Anattā: Heart of Wisdom (Hohm Press $21.95), he combines contemplative essays and poetry to examine the Buddhist concept of non-self, drawing on experiences in the Himalaya and the natural world to explore compassion, conflict, belonging and the stories that connect us across time and place. 9781963433173.
