There are singular moments in a woman's life when something happens, either by choice or circumstance, that changes everything. Kintsukuroi Heart is a memoir illuminating these defining moments through a collection of stand-alone stories, then reveals how each event reshaped the woman's life.
Although the circumstances are unique and deeply personal, you will find the events are strongly identifiable - to yourself or someone you love. Some are heartbreaking, others triumphant, and they are the threads that connect us all, making us each more beautiful for having been broken.
"Kintsukuroi: kin-tsU-kU-roi (noun) (v. phr.) 'To repair with gold.' The Japanese art of mending broken pottery with lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum. As a philosophy, it treats breakage and repair as part of the history of an object rather than something to disguise, understanding that the piece becomes more beautiful for having been broken.
