- Window shopping for God : a comedian's search for meaning / by Kimmett, Deborah(Deborah Ann),author.;
- "Window Shopping for God is the story of Kimmett's lifelong flip through the catalogue of beliefs -- from her teen years, when a near-death experience gave her a new, less Catholic perspective, to her struggles with addiction and mental health that led her in and out of faith -- and her search, as a woman in her sixties, for meaning that could finally plant her on firmer ground. Unflinchingly honest and wildly funny, Kimmett's writing takes us down the serpentine routes we travel in our search for certainty, and the more familiar paths that bring us back to ourselves."-- Provided by publisher.
