This is a literate and deeply felt meditation that illuminates the truth of who we are. We all hold deep-seated beliefs about three essential elements of our lives: what we do (and are not willing to do); what we know (and are certain that we don't know); and what we are (and are not). We invest each of these activities with our life force and yet we are so close to them we cannot see them clearly.

In Caught in the Act, Toinette Lippe --- with wit, a laser-sharp eye for detail, and a sense of the contemplative --- brings us on a journey of awareness so that we perceive how being, knowing, and doing shape our daily existence.

Ultimately, Caught in the Act is a journey of surrender. In its pages, we learn to give up the illusion of identifying with the thoughts and activities that we call "I" --- a vital step on the spiritual path and in the search for an authentic life.
