AWW21 The Believer - Sarah Krasnostein

Sarah Krasnostein’s first book, The Trauma Cleaner, was a runaway
bestseller and swept literary prizes nationally. Her new book is
The Believer, an exploration of the power of belief. In it, she
listens to the “human song of longing for the unattainable”, with
each note in the song a story of unshakeable and often
unfathomable faith. The stories are told to her by six
extraordinary individuals – including Death Doulas, Ghostbusters,
Creationists and survivors of domestic violence – individuals
Sarah meets, follows, interrogates and seeks to understand in
this profound and deeply compassionate book.
