(from the back cover) “Settling into the responsibilities and routines of adulthood, Dani Shapiro found herself with more questions than answers. Was this all life was – a hodgepodge of errands, dinner dates, e-mails, meetings, to-do lists? What did it all mean? Having grown up in a deeply religious and traditional family. Shapiro had no personal sense of faith, despite her repeated attempts to create a connection to something greater. Set adrift by loss – her father’s early death, the life-threatening illness of her infant son, her troubled relationship with her mother – she recognized the challenge at the heart of her anxiety: What did she believe?
This is Dani’s second memoir, her first, entitled Slow Motion, explored her early twenties – a time of rebellion. She has also written five novels, including Black & White and Family History. She has taught in the writing programs at Columbia, NYU, The New School and Wesleyan University, and she is co-founder of the Sirenland Writers Conference in Positano, Italy. She lives with her family in Litchfield County, Conneticut.
Would love to read this book. I have truly lost faith and believe this life is what we need to make the best of as there isn’t another.
Thanks for the wonderful giveaway
