Bridge Between Worlds

"The evolution of our species asks for us to build bridges beyond narrowed identities and discover the dimensional wholeness that is our true nature. In this evocative depiction of her own journey, Hala Buck shows us how each of our lives can be an unfolding--from woundedness to healing, and from separation to belonging." --Tara Brach, Author of Radical Acceptance and Radical Compassion (Viking, 2020)

"Hala Buck rightfully sums herself up in the title of her book Bridge Between Worlds: A Lebanese-Arab-American Woman's Journey, and what a journey it has been! Mrs. Buck takes the reader on a fascinating and complex worldwide journey, rich in details of the tapestry of her experiences. One cannot help but conclude that there is a need for more Hala Bucks in these very divisive times. We could all learn from her." --Johnny Young, U.S. Career Ambassador (ret.) and Angelena V. Young U.S. Protocol Officer (Ret.)

"This memoir is a profound, poignant, and personable account of an Arab woman born across faiths, married to an American diplomat, mother to a bicultural daughter. Hala's stories are filled with candor, humor, struggles, and insights as a bridge builder, a peacemaker, a model of an Arab-American woman. All readers will be gripped and moved by this memoir that connects us across cultures!" --Luby Ismail, Intercultural trainer, Founder and President of Connecting Cultures
