Notes:
"Reverend Ruth Broggan thinks God has something to answer for. Let go from her busy church in Markham, transfered to a tiny, aging congregation in Toronto, Ruth Broggan finds herself confronted with life's most terrifying prospect: time to consider what it's really all about. Letters, phone messages and even sermons, chroncles Ruth's crisis of faith as she sorts through how others have found purpose; hearing from Kelly, her Buddist daughter, Mark, a priest friend currently on "recall" to Rome to learn to be less flexible, Kit, a famous lesbian poet with a long-time unrequited love for Ruth, and even from the rabbi of the synagogue next door. At last, Ruth decides on a radical approach to finding the meaning of life: she locks herself into the manse, refusing to come out until God talks to her.--Inside jacket.
