The Dance of the Dissident Daughter by Sue Monk Kidd
Alma's review
rating:
recommended for: any and every woman
When I read the last page, I wanted to turn to the first and start again. More than any other book thus far, Dance of the Dissident Daughter has had the strongest and most life-giving impact on my spirituality. Period. Kidd verbalized both my struggle with religion as a woman and my unending desire for authentic connection with the Divine. Kidd describes her journey as she explores a deeply healing and enlightening path of spirituality that honors the feminine. This book was a door and an invitation for me to delve into a new and much-needed redefining of faith.
I especially recommend this to women who have been raised in a religious family, women of faith, religious leaders or clergy, women who are frustrated with church or religion, women who are seeking a faith that not only includes and represents but honors the feminine, mothers, wives, daughters, and the men who might want to better understand them.
