It’s been said that Anne
Lamott is walking proof that a person can be both reverent and irreverent in the same lifetime. Sometimes in the same breath.

Anne Lamott has written best-selling books on the first year of motherhood and on the art of writing – she’s also written 6 novels and a column for Salon magazine.

Nothing has touched people more deeply than Lamott’s writing about religion. It’s searingly honest, and funny. Her latest book is called Grace (Eventually): Thoughts on Faith.
