Description

When the World Didn't End A Memoir by Guinevere Turner is a deeply personal and immersive account of her childhood growing up in a cult-like community. On January 5, 1975, six-year-old Guinevere was told that the world would end, but instead of salvation, she found isolation and confusion. Guinevere's story takes her from the compound in Kansas where she spent most of her days, to traveling with the inner circle among communities in Los Angeles, Boston, and Martha's Vineyard. As she navigates this new world, Guinevere must confront the harsh realities of her past and the pain of leaving behind everything she knew. This New York Times Best Book of the Year is a powerful exploration of identity, community, and the complexities of growing up in a world that can be both beautiful and brutal.
