Steeped: My Search for Tea and Transformation in India

Recipient of Literary Titan's GOLD book award for non-fiction, Steeped is Bill Giebler's memoir chronicling his life-changing travels across India.

In 2011, an unexpected gift provoked Giebler to leave a 20-year career and embark on a solo journey in search of transformation. What followed was the dance of hope, dread, excitement, and anxiety that engulfed him throughout a distinctively austere ten-week journey and the deconstruction of roles-father, lover, partner, careerist-that had come to define him.

Steeped provides a vicarious trek-both spiritual quest and travelogue from enchanting Himalayan tea village to scorching Rajasthani desert-through the contemplations that arise when taking such a leap and the realization that the answers we seek are never so far away.
