Fifty-five years have passed since the cover of Time Magazine proclaimed the death of God, and while participation in mainstream religion has indeed plummeted, Americans have never been more spiritually busy. Exploring this peculiarly postmodern Great Awakening, Tara Isabella Burton visits with the techno-utopians of Silicon Valley, polyamorous communities, witches from Bushwick, wellness junkies, and social justice activists, proving Americans are not abandoning religion but remixing it.

"Burton's writing is challenging, educational, and electric, combining big-picture thinking with deep-dive immersion…. Readers will come away with enlightened and altered thinking."—Booklist
