Sarah Krasnostein\u2019s first book, The Trauma Cleaner, was a runaway bestseller and swept literary prizes nationally. Her new book is The Believer, an exploration of the power of belief. In it, she listens to the \u201chuman song of longing for the unattainable\u201d, with each note in the song a story of unshakeable and often unfathomable faith. The stories are told to her by six extraordinary individuals \u2013 including Death Doulas, Ghostbusters, Creationists and survivors of domestic violence \u2013 individuals Sarah meets, follows, interrogates and seeks to understand in this profound and deeply compassionate book.
