In this powerful collection of modern prose and poetry, women from a wide spectrum of races and religions embrace their spiritual heritage, or create one. Some question the traditional patriarchy of established churches while others find in the house of their fathers the traditions that lend comfort and structure to daily existence. But all are searching for the sacred in their lives. These 61 works, by and for women, give voice to the female force in spirituality today. With anger, irony, nostalgia, humor, and cries of joy or pain they speak out about their connection to the sacred.
