In this profound, poignant memoir, a religious skeptic endeavors to rediscover her source of faith after being hit by a car. As she does so, she encounters the work of religious philosophers and thinkers such as Henry Bergson, Abraham Joshua Heschel, Maimonides, Rudolph Otto, Saadya, and Rabbi Joseph Soloveitchik, which provides her with clues to a spiritual resolution. Cheryl Berman utilizes scenes from the book of Job as well as snapshots from her own life to explicate the various philosophical theories that make up the stops along her personal journey. This book seeks to reassure those undergoing crises of faith that they are not alone, even as it offers philosophical suggestions toward solutions to some basic and religious and spiritual quandaries.
