Linda MercadantePaperback 2006-09-25
Publisher Description
In this memoir, Mercadante tells of her quest for religious identity, a real home, good work, and a one-faith family. Born just after World War II to a mixed-religion family, she tries Catholicism, a WASP sorority, atheism, Eastern mysticism, and vegetarianism. She works as an airline stewardess and as a journalist. She earns a doctorate and becomes a seminary professor. Her story holds key lessons for people from "mixed" backgrounds, those who long for the ideal family, and those who shun religion as a dead-end.
