Book Synopsis


Trade Review
“This memoir shares a compelling story, often poetic and sometimes heartbreaking, rich with the makings of wisdom. . . . Barber is unquestionably a talented writer. She captures setting in vivid detail and evokes metaphors that are truly beautiful, even breathtaking.”-- Dialogue: A Journal of Mormon Thought

“Raw Edges . . . tells the story of a woman redefining herself as a person and how her Mormon faith provided a unique experience on her journey to a new life. Moving and poignant, Raw Edges is a memoir well worth reading for insight on the life of a not-so-common Mormon woman.” -- Midwest Book Review

“Barber’s empathy and ability to articulate the emotions of divorce, loss, and struggle render her more than simply a regional or Mormon author, but an author of national scope.”-- ForeWord Reviews

“At a time when we’re accustomed to seeing failed relationships through the kaleidoscope of advice columns and talk-show gabbing, Barber takes divorce into the territory of literary art.”-- Salt Lake Tribune
