With Still: Notes on a Mid-Faith Crisis, one of today’s most exciting literary voices arrives at the crossroads of culture and spirituality. Lauren Winner, author of Girl Meets God, joins the ranks of writers like Anne Lamott and Barbara Brown Taylor, sharing a memoir that N. T. Wright calls “an unusually painful story, told with rare honesty by an unusually gifted writer.” Dr. Rowan Williams, the Archbishop of Canterbury, says “it is a relief to find a book on the life of faith that is honest about the pain of emptiness and the fear of losing all that orients your life. Nothing glib here and nothing superhuman: just putting one foot in front of the other with whatever trust you can manage, because there is no other way to go.”
