Anne Lamott navigates the wacky, wild journey of her faith. Moments of insight and buoyancy emerge from the emotion muck of life's troubles and wonders. Lamott recounts the missteps and detours that test her beliefs, yet grace eventually appears—in nature, the kitchen, the ordinary and the mysterious. At the heart lies the longing to be fully alive, to find light in the darkness. Lamott's bittersweet primer of faith is a moving testament to the unexpected beauty that can blossom, even amid the confusion.
