Chasing Waves is Maille O'Donnell's debut poetry collection. With rhythmic, rhyming language and dynamic visual metaphors, the collection covers spiritual themes including mindfulness, emptiness, impermanence, love, and acceptance.
O'Donnell draws upon her experiences meditating and surfing to write poetry that is at once peaceful, playful, and existential. Chasing Waves is for imaginative, curious readers who spend their time wondering about the big questions: • Who am I? • Why am I here? • What does it mean to live a good life? • Where will I go when I die? While the poetry collection is inspired by many of the core ideas of Buddhism, it is accessible and engaging for readers of any spiritual tradition. Chasing Waves is a book that readers can turn to again and again for fresh perspective and contemplation on life's big questions.
