About this listen

Two men, three realms, one goal: to find the heart of the world. Painted Oxen is a novel of transcendence, one that not only invites its listeners into its story, but somehow enmeshes them in its alchemy, leaving them changed in unexpected ways at its journey's end. Bridging the worlds of ancient Tibet and modern-day India, Painted Oxen weaves a tale of two men - one young, one old - on parallel journeys. Their separate-but-connected pilgrimages are equal parts internal and external.

The old man, a Tibetan monk, is searching for a sacred, hidden valley known to bring enlightenment to those who enter it. The young man is backpacking through India, searching for a guru or the love of his life; he doesn’t care which. A mysterious redhaired woman who resembles an ancient goddess appears in a series of dream chapters that tie the two journeys together. The underlying theme of the novel is the transformation of the human heart, which is required to arrive at any true change in our lives. With its authentic voices, unforgettable characters, and well-crafted story, Painted Oxen successfully bridges the worlds of literary and spiritual fiction, adding something new and authentic to the literary landscape.
