The Story of a Reporter Who Goes Out on Assignment and Never Comes Back

Writer/Editor Margaret Bendet, author of recently released memoir Learning to Eat Along the Way, will host a reading/signing at Diesel Bookstore for Learning to Eat Along the Way, an honest and often surprising account of “turning within” from a woman who had to face down intense infatuation, anorexia, and bulimia.

After interviewing an Indian holy man, Margaret Bendet follows him in pursuit of enlightenment—unconditional and unending joy—and winds up facing demons that were inside her all along. Living in an ashram wasn’t at all what she’d expected.
