Parting Gifts
Anne Hines launches readers on an unpredictable, sometimes hilarious, often touching exploration into the nature of loss in our lives and the unexpected gifts that come to us as a result. Drawing on the wisdom of scholars and sages as well as her own reflections, Hines takes us through the twists and turns presented by her own life, told with stark and honest candor. Through divorce, depression, fears brought on by ageing, and even the event of losing a son (who became a daughter), Hines assures us that lie always has a brighter side and that with every loss in life, something real and remarkable is there to be gained, no matter what kind of loss we may encounter.

Reverend Ruth Broggan thinks God has something to answer for. Let go from her busy church in Markham and transferred to a tiny, aging congregation in Toronto, Ruth Broggan finds herself confronted with life’s most terrifying prospect—time to consider what it’s really all about. Letters, e-mails, phone messages and even sermons chronicle Ruth’s crisis of faith. She sorts through how others have found purpose: from Kelly, her Buddhist daughter; from Mark, a priest friend currently on “recall” to Rome to learn to be less flexible; from Kit, a famous lesbian poet who has a long-time unrequited love for Ruth; and even from the rabbi of the synagogue next door. At last, Ruth decides on a radical approach to find the meaning of life: she locks herself into the the manse, refusing to come out until God talks to her.
