Summary |
"About the time she turns 50, Noelle Oxenhandler finds herself divorced, cast out of her beloved spiritual community and needing to find a new home - and make a fresh start. In despair, she decides one New Year's Day to wish for three things that seem impossible: love in her life, a house she can afford, and spiritual healing. The results astonish her: not only do her wishes come true within a year, but they come true in the most unlikely and specific ways. Reminiscent of memoirs like the bestselling Salvation Creek by Susan Duncan and Without Reservations by Alice Steinbach, as well as Elizabeth Gilbert's Eat Pray Love, The Wishing Year is beautifully written, insightful and incredibly winning, and will touch anyone who has ever made a wish"--Publisher |
