Why read it?
1 author picked Stealing Faith as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Everyone reveres Grace Paley, but what if you could read a fictionalized account of Paley and the young writer she mentoredâand even created a publishing company to publish her?
Thatâs writer Leora Skolkin-Smithâs story and itâs so gripping, so passionate, so real. Set in the tumultuous 1970s, itâs about female power, trauma, and how mentoring worksâand sometimes doesnât work. Plus it is so gorgeously written, a gripping page-turner about finding our voices, both on the page, and off. I just adored itâso much that I got all of Skolkin-Smithâs other books, too.
From Caroline's list on hidden gems that wonât stay hidden for long.
