Maggiori informazioni sul libro

With exceptional storytelling, the acclaimed author shares her personal journey of fear, anger, healing, and freedom in reclaiming the wholeness women have lost within patriarchal faith traditions. Once a conventionally religious woman, Sue Monk Kidd began to question her role in her culture, family, and church. She takes readers through her transformative awakening, revealing her struggle to unfold her spiritual life in a feminine way. In the late 1980s, Kidd's unexpected spiritual journey led her toward a feminine spirituality that challenges traditional norms. From a jarring encounter with sexism to retreats in monasteries and rituals in Crete, she explores a new level of feminine spiritual consciousness. This journey retains a meaningful connection to the "deep song of Christianity" while embracing the sacredness of ordinary women's experiences. Kidd's insights have the power to positively transform fundamental relationships in a woman's life—her marriage, career, and religion. This Plus edition paperback includes a recent interview with the author conducted by the book's editor, Michael Maudlin, providing further depth to her exploration of feminine spirituality.
