What People are Saying About This

From the Publisher

"Anne Lamott is...a swearing spiritual pundit who prays for redemption but brags about her offenses. Lamott's latest tell-all is Grace (Eventually): Thoughts of Faith, a searching memoir full of...offbeat spiritual humor. What makes Lamott's writing powerful isn't her unconventional faith. Rather, it's the profound message about God's grace and redemption often lurking underneath all the...brutal honesty." -Chicago Sun-Times "Lamott's self-deprecating stories are refreshingly frank and endearingly fun." -Washington Post
