*Booklist*
Brooks's best book yet ... Powerful ... His stirring new book is a
self-help guide to escaping the prison of self.
*The Observer, 'Book of the Day'*
Enormously comforting and galvanising ... a better way to live
Across more than 300 pages of heartfelt prose, Brooks reworks [the
meaning of life] into a neat story . . . Brooks' willingness to be
"a little vulnerable" results in a refreshing honest confession . .
. There's no top-of-the-mountain moment . . . just a friendly,
gentle nudging toward the conclusion that real joy lies in moral
commitment.
*The Irish Times*
The book overall, candid about the reality of stress and failure in
the author's life, has earned the right to put forward with equal
candour the experience of finding, or being found by, faith.
*The New Statesman*
