SynopsisAcclaimed author Sue Monk Kidd (The Secret Life of Bees) writes about her own unexpected journey into feminine spirituality, where she seeks to reclaim the wholeness lost to women within patriarchal faith traditions. Kidd enjoyed a thriving career as a Christian writer until she experienced an awakening and began to question her role as a woman in her culture, her family, and her church. In this heartfelt memoir, the author of When the Heart Waits tells her very personal story of the fear, anger, healing, and freedom she experienced on the path toward the wholeness that many women have lost in the church. From a jarring encounter with sexism in a suburban drugstore, to monastery retreats and to rituals in the caves of Crete, Kidd reveals a new level of feminine spiritual consciousness for all women - one that retains a meaningful connection with the "deep song of Christianity," embraces the sacredness of ordinary women's experience, and has the power to transform in the most positive ways every fundamental relationship in a woman's life.Sue Monk Kidd is the award-winning author of Dance of the Dissident Daughter and God's Joyful Surprise, as well as the best-selling novels The Secret Life of Bees and The Mermaid Chair. She has written for numerous publications, including Reader's Digest and the Atlanta-Journal Constitution and had a regular assignment with Guideposts. She lives outside of Charleston, South Carolina."Kidd's successful pilgrimage from her Southern Baptist roots and away from the patriarchal and fundamentalist Christian religious systems surrounding her is an account of anger turned to courage, creativity and love." - Publishers Weekly, "A masterpiece of women's wisdom."--Christiane Northrup, M.D. "The journey to capture her feminine soul and live authentically . . . makes a fascinating, well-researched and well-written story."-- Publishers Weekly In celebration of the twentieth anniversary of its publication, a newly reissued edition of the bestselling author's classic work of feminine spiritual discovery, with a new introduction by the author. "I was amazed to find that I had no idea how to unfold my spiritual life in a feminine way. I was surprised, and, in fact, a little terrified, when I found myself in the middle of a feminist spiritual reawakening."-- Sue Monk Kidd For years, Sue Monk Kidd was a conventionally religious woman. Then, in the late 1980s, she experienced an unexpected awakening, and began a journey toward a feminine spirituality. With the exceptional storytelling skills that have helped make her name, Kidd tells her very personal story of the fear, anger, healing, and freedom she experienced on the path toward the wholeness that many women have lost in the church. From a jarring encounter with sexism in a suburban drugstore, to monastery retreats and to rituals in the caves of Crete, she reveals a new level of feminine spiritual consciousness for all women--one that retains a meaningful connection with the "deep song of Christianity," embraces the sacredness of ordinary women's experience, and has the power to transform in the most positive ways every fundamental relationship in a woman's life--her marriage, her career, and her religion.
