Reviews
What does it mean to be mentored by a genius who it turns out needs you as much as you need her? Skolkin, who was mentored, befriended, and first published by Grace Paley herself, has created an extraordinarily moving new novel, a cinematic page-turner about a young troubled writer's relationship with a literary icon and how they each end up impacting the other. Shimmering with insights about the literary world, creativity, friendship, power, illness, and the cost and fake glitter of fame, Finding Faith is about what we truly need to become--and to help others become--our truest selves.--Caroline Leavitt, New York Times bestselling author of Pictures of You, Is This Tomorrow, and With or Without You
