(PUBHarperCollins)Autobiographically traces Buechner's days as a Union Theological Seminary student, being ordained as a Presbyterian clergy, and early fields of mission. "Candid, breathtaking images,"---Christian Century. 112 pages, softcover.

Spiritual and autobiographical reflections on the author's seminary days, early ministry, and writing career.

Frederick Buechner, author of more than thirty works of fiction and nonfiction, is an ordained Presbyterian minister. He has been a finalist for both the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award and was honored by the American Academy of Arts and Letters. His most recent work is Beyond Words: Daily Readings in the ABC’s of Faith.

“Graceful in story and insights.”

“Candid... wistful...breathtaking images.”

“Strikes to the heart…Unpreachy meditations on life and Christianity at its most profound.”

“Buechner writes better than almost anyone. This book and its companion, The Sacred Journey, reduce and clarify the who and what and why of his whole life to something not unlike the palm-sized egg of crystal. Deep within it, as we read, the sun shines and the constellations rove.”

“Buechner is a worthy member of the great prose stylists: Pascal, Newman, and Merton, who have harnessed their art to a passionate religious faith.”
