If you love Harlan Coben, then you'll.....well, maybe not like this book. Coben's treatment of the unacknowledged longing for the universal feminine divine is considerably more muted and subtle than Sue Monk Kidd's. This edition includes an interview with Sue Monk Kidd. I'm happy to know that her father is the "exact opposite" of Lily's negligent and abusive father.
