THE SHELTER OF EACH OTHER

"I write about families because I love them," Pipher says in the introduction to THE SHELTER OF EACH OTHER. It's apparent in her careful investigation of family structures, both traditional and modern. Pipher's words are deftly narrated, with crisp articulation and thoughtfulness. What subtly unfolds--from Pipher's recounting of her own family life, as well as the families she counsels in her practice--is the lesson that we must come to a new, practical definition of family values. This audiobook ofers a gentle, yet honest, view of the shortcomings of the modern family--and possible solutions to them. R.A.P. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: SEPT 96]
