Author Lorraine Ash will discuss her latest book, "Self and Soul, On Creating a Meaningful Life," at Market Restaurant and Bar on Mt. Kemble Avenue on March 21.

The presentation will be hosted by Salon des philosophes and begin at 7:30 p.m.

"Ms. Ash's book is for anyone seeking to understand one's life," according to a press release for the event. "Her voice is so authentic and her heart is so purely fascinated with the truth of life and of being, that you cannot help but be inspired by her courage, commitment and compassion. You will find that she helps you to find your own voice, and connect with your own truth."

Immediately following the book talk, a free-range discussion will be hosted about participants' own quests for meaning. Hors d'ouvres and refreshments will be served.

The cost to attend the book talk is $25 and it is not necessary for the book to be read before participating.
