The New York Times -bestselling author takes on New Agers as one woman searches for meaning in this "brilliantly satiric but . . . sweet-natured" novel ( Publishers Weekly ). Thirty-year-old Martha is stagnating in a demeaning, woefully underpaid job as a fact-checker at frothy fashion magazine Mode and an unhappy relationship with an unrepentant jerk. But she stumbles upon an unlikely new circle of friends when she interrupts a goddess-worshipping ceremony on Fire Island and ends up rescuing its accident-prone leader, Isis Moonwagon, from the waves.

"Prose's satiric vision could not be more sharply focused here, and her powers of observation and deadpan humor never falter" as she sends up the New Age movement and its over-earnest adherents ( The Miami Herald ).
