The Dance of the Dissident Daughter: A Woman's Journey from Christian Tradition to the Sacred Feminine
For years, award-winning author Sue Monk Kidd was a conventionally religious woman.
Then, in the late 1980s, Kidd experienced an unexpected awakening, and began a
journey toward a feminine spirituality.
With the exceptional storytelling skills
that have helped make her name, the acclaimed 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 women have lost within patriarchal faith
traditions. 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.
