A memoir about one woman's lifetime struggle to overcome a dark secret buried in her childhood. This book chronicles Martha Beck's difficult decision to sever her relationship with the faith that had raised her, and to confront and forgive the person who betrayed her so deeply.

Reviews

One of the bravest, most achingly honest books I've read in years.' Harriet Lerner, Ph.D., author of The Dance of Anger. 'Leaving the Saints is a brave book. Martha Beck shares her journey out of religion and into faith and healing with heartbreaking candor, softened by wit and uplifted by a deep spiritual longing.' Sharon Salzberg, author of Faith: Trusting Your Own Deepest Experience
