Description
“The Sound of Gravel is a portrait of real courage in a sea of pretenders. Ruth Wariner, you
have my respect as a writer and a survivor.― ―Kelly Corrigan, New York Times bestselling
author of The Middle Place'A haunting harrowing testament to survival.'―People
Magazine'Wrenching and moving...Wariner is a survivor, but more important, sheâ€s a fantastic
writer.'―Entertainment Weekly'An addictive chronicle of a polygamist community'―New York
Magazine“Engrossingly readable from start to finish... an unsentimental yet wholly moving
memoir.― ―Kirkus Reviews'This well-written book is hard to put down and hard to forget.'
―Publishers Weekly (starred review)'Haunting. Rather than delving into the particulars of the
communityâ€s beliefs, Wariner reveals them as they arise. This gives great depth to the
portrayal of her situation. With power and insight, Warinerâ€s tale shows a road to escape from
the most confining circumstances.'―Booklist'If your book club is looking for a startling memoir,
look no further than The Sound of Gravel. Disturbing, powerful, and poignant, Wariner delivers a
harrowing story of survival and taking the necessary risk of saving yourself.'―Real Simple
“The Sound of Gravel will haunt you, and Ruth Wariner will inspire with her direct,
unsentimental prose. I lost sleep reading this memoir and felt nothing but awe and respect. That
Ruth survived to tell this story simply boggles my mind.― ―Jennifer Lauck, New York Times
bestselling author of Blackbird, Still Waters, Show Me The Way, and Found“The Sound of
Gravel is a riveting portrayal of what it's really like to grow up in a polygamist community. Ruth
Wariner's simple writing, her enduring love for her mother and siblings, and her dramatic escape
make this an engrossing, deeply moving memoir.― ―Claire Bidwell Smith, author of The Rules
of Inheritance and After This“What chance does a girl have in a world where men believe that
they (and they alone) are destined to be gods? This is the question Ruth Wariner bravely asks as
she brings us into the hardscrabble Mormon polygamous communities of remote northern Mexico.
Like a Dorothy Allison of the American West, Wariner shows us the humanity and tenacity in the
people she comes from while making no apology for wanting something better for herself. Ruth
Wariner has given us an unforgettable portrait of an enduring and deeply misunderstood segment
of American society and a deeply moving account of her own determined pathway out.―
―Joanna Brooks, author of The Book of Mormon Girl: A Memoir of an American Faith“A
beautifully narrated story that manages to be both heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same
time. Told with generosity and without self-pity, I turned each page with admiration of Ruth's
resilience and strength of spirit. Powerless as she watches her misguided mother endure a life of
servility to her stepfather, Ruth's love for her siblings and determination to break destructive family

patterns will fill your heart with hope an
