Overview

"A real treasure; powerful and gripping... On several levels Gateley combines intellect and spirit with Activism... She perhaps can achieve things others merely discuss."--The Bloomsbury Review

""This is a journal of two spirits: one of a woman desperately seeking new life; the other of a woman alive with the zeal of the gospel. The reader relives the Christian struggle to find meaning in the midst of acute pain and society's oppressive force.""--Donald Senior

""One of the most moving books I have ever read. I want to compare it with the writings of Julian of Norwich. Edwina and Julian both work with a mixture of spiritual power, fun, gentleness, earthiness, grieving and faith.""--Rosemary Haughton

""A different kind of love story, written with integrity, genuine courage and compassion... I cried as I closed this book.""--Mary Luke Tobin

New edition of a modern classic. The powerful story of two women: one who ministered to prostitutes in Chicago and the friend who struggled to rise from the mean streets.
