Seeing Red

“Truly intimate with the world, Lone is a compelling heroine that takes us on an unforgettable journey into both dark and light places of our human heart, mind and soul, helping us discover how truly powerful we are.”
– Kristine Carlson, Author of Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff for Women and Heartbroken Open.

Seeing Red: A Women’s Quest for Truth, Power, and the Sacred is an intimate memoir about one woman’s search for personal power—a journey of climbing inner and outer mountains that takes her to the holy Mt. Kailas in Tibet, through a seven-year marriage, and into the arms of the fierce goddess Kali, where she discovers her powerful, feminine self. This is the story of Denmark native Lone Mørch’s transformation—a story of love and passion, and also a story of self-betrayal. After realizing that she’s given up on herself, Mørch has to strip herself bare, lose everything she’s held dear, and tear down everything she’s ever built in order to reclaim her life and sense of self.

Seeing Red has received the Mary Tanenbaum Literary Award for a Nonfiction work in progress and an Honorary Mention at the San Francisco Book Festival.

Description

“It takes a great deal of courage to embark on the expedition that Lone leads. From a sacred mountain in Tibet to the Nepali cave of a blood-soaked goddess, Lone Morch takes readers on a journey through layers of illusion, getting finally to the heart of the matter, the threshold of the goddess, the font of true love, and the source of real personal power. Love, loss, failure, renewal-Seeing Red has it all.”
– Linda Watanabe McFerrin, Author of The Hand of Buddha and Dead Love (Stone Bridge Press, 2010)

“The pilgrimage to Tibet’s Mt. Kailas is supremely difficult, bringing the traveler face-to-face with hidden strengths and inner demons. It’s always a journey of discovery. Lone Mørch’s powerful memoir details an especially challenging expedition as she guides us through Nepal, along the route to the sacred mountain, and across her tumultuous inner landscape. Thoughtful and compelling, Seeing Red maps the unexpected places we seek and find personal power.”
– Jeff Greenwald, founder of Ethical Travel and Author of Mister Raja’s Neighborhood, Shopping for Buddhas, and Snake Lake.

“Readers, not just pilgrims, seek enlightenment. And memoirs often fail to provide those aha! moments. But Seeing Red overflows with insights into the feminine journey: how we wake up to our own power through risking heartbreak, and how it is only by becoming aware of our deepest selves that we can transcend. Seeing Red blends the spiritual and the physical in a heady mix that is both charming and bracing!”
– Jane Ganahl, co-founder of the Litquake festival, author of “Naked on the Page”

“Truly intimate with the world, Lone is a compelling heroine that takes us on an unforgettable journey into both dark and light places of our human heart, mind and soul, helping us discover how truly powerful we are.”

“A moving memoir of Mørch’s  spiritual journey that teaches her to listen to her inner voice and self; and not to be guided by external influences. A powerful writer, she is totally honesty. which is moving and inspiring to read. Sometimes, the reader may not even like her, but as the story progresses and she finds inner strength, the readers want her to succeed at all costs. Sensitive writing with beautiful metaphors, analogies, and language. Her voice resonates with the feminine in all of us and her journey is the journey of all women.”
– 5 Stars, Readers’ Favorite, Christine Nguyen
