A local author we interviewed last year and her extraordinary story come to the Larchmont Library February 12. In her gripping and often unsettling memoir, fathermothergod, My Journey Out of Christian Science Lucia Greenhouse tells of the pains of growing up in a family with fervent Christian Science beliefs.
Her own thoughts of religion often clashed with her parents’; most forcefully when her mother became seriously ill with cancer and her father consulted Christian Science healers, instead of doctors. Come hear Linda Greenhouse’s profound struggle with family and faith.
