Kurzbeschreibung
Struggling writer Jess Conover needs a job. But 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.
The Daughters of Joy, as they are called, serve Amor, the god of love. In the modern world, with its restless longing and terrifying violence, Amor may seem extinct. Yet the lessons of love have been passed on like a secret treasure from generation to generation. Jess is compelled to enter "the second world" that lies behind our own, a place nurtured and preserved by a handful of women who can guide him on this remarkable adventure of the heart.

Inspiring
18. November 2002
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I am a longtime fan of Deepak Chopra's career, and despite the editorial review listed above, I found Daughters of Joy to contain great inspiration. It is definitely an inspirational novel with lots of lessons contained in the story--the book ends with fifty pages of direct question and answers about the issue of love and personal growth. So if you expect straight romance, this isn't the novel for you. However, I don't think that was the author's purpose. This is a direct, attempt to confront society's need for love as a saving grace, and the hero does ssomething not a lot of men whoud dare to do: he accepts a woman as his teacher and guide. For that alone, I think Duahgters of Joy is worthwhile. I wound up admiring the book and was glad I read it. Thank you, Dr. Chopra for continuing to get the message out.

A Magical, Mystical, Must-Read!
12. November 2002
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I love the way Deepak Chopra writes. He is a modern day storyteller. His characters are fully developed and richly woven into their relationships. Soulmate was so poignant, and Daughters of Joy is even better! The truths explored cry out to be heard in today's troubled times. I can't wait for his next novel!

The Daughters of Joy: An Adventure of the Heart
27. Juli 2004
Format:Taschenbuch
For those of us who are enamored with Deepak Chopra's work, this delightful book will not be a disappointment. Intriguing life principles are cleverly woven into such an unlikely story that the reader finds him/herself truly engaged in the unfolding of a story that both informs and entertains, leaving one with gems of wisdom to ponder as we move through our own mystical journey.
