The Believer
Encounters with Love, Death & Faith
by Sarah Krasnostein
This extraordinary new book by the bestselling and multi-award-winning author Sarah Krasnostein explores the power of belief. What do we believe? Who do we believe? Why do we believe them? Sarah Krasnostein has been spending time with interview subjects around the world. Some of them believe in things most people don’t. Ghosts. UFOs. The literal creation of the universe in six days by an all-powerful God. Some of them believe in things most people would like to. Living with integrity and compassion. Dying with dignity and autonomy. Facing up to our transgressions with a truthful heart. In this intensely personal and gorgeously written new book Krasnostein, the acclaimed author of The Trauma Cleaner, talks to these believers with compassion and empathy—and finds out what happens when their beliefs crash into her own.
