Sister Chan Khong's autobiography tells the story of her spiritual and personal odyssey through the many years of her life. The book's centerpiece is her moving account of her return to Vietnam, her homeland, after 40 years of exile. She describes in refreshing detail her emotional reactions, the reunions with many old friends and fellow activists, and her impression of the "new Vietnam" where Buddhists still struggle for religious freedom. Often compared to "The Autobiography of Mahatma Gandhi, " this memoir connects to larger themes, especialy when the author discusses the life and teaching of her fellow exile, Thich Nhat Hanh, gives an overview of the development of the European and American peace and human rights movements, and introduces readers to the Vietnamese style of Buddhism. "Learning True Love" is a testament to the power of tenacity and faith.
