A Chant to Soothe Wild Elephants

A Chant to Soothe Wild Elephants - Jaed Coffin

A Chant to Soothe Wild Elephants

A the age of 21, Collins, a half-Thai American, left college to be ordained as a Buddhist monk in his mother's native village of Panomsarakram. While addressing the notions of displacement, ethnic identity, and cultural belonging, Coffin chronicles his time at the temple that rainy season.
Six years ago at the age of twenty-one, Jaed Muncharoen Coffin, a half-Thai American man, left New England's privileged Middlebury College to be ordained as a Buddhist monk in his mother's native village of Panomsarakram--thus fulfilling a familial obligation. While addressing the notions of displacement, ethnic identity, and cultural belonging, A Chant to Soothe Wild Elephants chronicles his time at the temple that rain season--receiving alms in the streets in saffron robes; bathing in the canals; learning to meditate in a mountaintop hut; and falling in love with Lek, a beautiful Thai woman who comes to represent the life he can have if he stays. Part armchair travel, part coming-of-age story, this debut work transcends the memoir genre and ushers in a brave new voice in American nonfiction.
