Publisher's Synopsis
People confess to the Wild Woman.
She tells them she's not a priest.
She explains that she cannot offer absolution.
Yet, sometimes absolution isn't the answer.
Some people just need to be heard.
Every confession starts the same:
Sister, I have sinned. How do I begin?
He challenges her credibility and in turn she tells him
tales from the Wailing Bench. Thus begins a discussion of shame, blame, forgiveness, grace
and how to survive the ledge.
