Anne Lamott is not only a notable fiction writer, she is also a deeply spiritual Christian and, politically, a staunch liberal. PLAN B is a sequel to TRAVELING MERCIES (1999). Like its predecessor, it's about a variety of issues (aging, the Bush White House, parenting), but Lamott also writes entertainingly about people--among them the minister of her church, her lively adolescent son, her friends, and her mother (who died between books). As always, Lamott comes out strongly for the values of friendship, kindness, and community--and, as usual, she's very funny.
