This Incredible Longing

""This isn't a story about finding the light. It's about walking through the dark and learning how to see."" -Kaitlyn Herman, ICF Certified Life Coach / Wellness Influencer ""A wise and emotionally generous account of a period of transformational growth by an author who is well-equipped to carry the dialectic truth that even an imperfect environment can give birth to a life-changing experience."" -Oliver Radclyffe, author Frighten the Horses ""This memoir will resonate strongly with anyone who had a quarter-life crisis that led them to make questionable choices as young adults; anyone who rejected the faith they were programmed to grow up in, in order to fi nd their true spiritual nature; and anyone who ever longed to feel as if they belonged, which is everyone."" -Sari Botton, Oldster Magazine editor; author And You May Find Yourself ""Glaser's writing is evocative, relatable, and humorous. It's a relief to read a book that does not take a hard line for or against a place, but rather explores the greater longing in human beings, and how places and institutions can both serve and exploit at once. Nothing is easy-Glaser demonstrates this in her heartfelt examination and tender exploration."" -Anna Rollins, author Famished: On Food, Sex, and Growing Up as a Good Girl""What draws us to spiritual communities, and where is the line between devotion and delusion? With wit and candor, Glaser reveals the tensions between belonging and autonomy, leaving seekers of all kinds with a nuanced take on faith, power, and personal transformation."" -Jeffrey Davis, author Tracking Wonder
