Reviews
"Skolkin-Smith (Edges: O Israel, O Palestine) spins a resonant, beautifully told coming-of-age story focusing on feminism, mental health, and grief . . . With two flawed and complex women coming to full life on the pages, this is an emotional story that is raw and revelatory, digging deep into the complexities these two face within themselves, each other, and in society. Takeaway: A raw and gripping novel of obsession, connection, and a feminist awakening in the 1970s."-- "Publishers Weekly" "Skolkin-Smith's prose is sharp and often surprising."-- "Kirkus Reviews" "What does it mean to be mentored by a genius who it turns out needs you as much as you need her? Skolkin 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, Stealing 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 and Cruel Beautiful World, 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.

Synopsis
Allegra Gordon knew there was much she could learn from Faith Hale. From the moment she met the esteemed writer and feminist icon on the campus of New York's Abigail Stone College, Allegra understood that Faith would be a force in her life, one that would wrench the best work from her and encourage her to lay her soul bare. The relationship that ......, Allegra Gordon knew there was much she could learn from Faith Hale. From the moment she met the esteemed writer and feminist icon on the campus of New York's Abigail Stone College, Allegra understood that Faith would be a force in her life, one that would wrench the best work from her and encourage her to lay her soul bare. The relationship that evolved would simultaneously be the most liberating and most shattering Allegra ever encountered. And it would change both women in profound ways. From political rallies in the early seventies to soaring tributes at the turn of the twenty-first century, from confidences betrayed to liberties taken to freedoms denied, from a cottage in Maine to stone buildings in Manhattan to a farmhouse in Vermont, here is a story of women's lives unfurled and of a friendship at once impossible and eternal.
