Women in Praise of the Sacred by Jane Hirshfield
5.0
"What the soul does for the body, the poet does for her people." - Gabriela Mistral
Immense gratitude to Jane Hirschfield for compiling, editing, and contextualizing this deeply sacred volume of women's spiritual poetry. She includes a wide variety of women hailing from around the world and works to set them in their own particularity while also drawing interesting comparisons in topic and theme among them. Profoundly illuminating.
