recommended for: anyone, regardless of personal beliefs
A deceptively simple story about a seemingly unremarkable woman and her brush with the miraculous. This book is both funny and poignant. It is as much a meditation on the nature of solitude and friendship amongst women as it is an exploration of the divine. The prose is crisp and deliberate. I ended the novel with the same sense of satisfied contemplation I typically receive from a hot cup of tea.
