I Felt the End Before It Came

Shortlisted for the Grand Prix du Livre de Montréal and a Publishers Weekly Best Book of 2023, this memoir follows Daniel Allen Cox’s journey of disentangling himself from the strict and often harmful teachings of his Jehovah’s Witness upbringing. Through candid reflection, Cox explores his experiences with cult-like tactics, identity, and self-acceptance, from his early days in Montreal to his later life in New York City. The book offers an honest and insightful account of navigating memory, trauma, and resilience within a complex legacy.
