The Passion by Jeanette Winterson
4.0
Can't believe I avoided this book for so long because the synopsis made it sound uncharacteristically heterosexual of Winterson.... I'll never not trust her again. Gorgeously weird and imaginative.
"The mystics and the churchmen talk about throwing off this body and its desires, being no longer a slave to the flesh. They don't say that through the flesh we are set free. That our desire for another will lift us out of ourselves more cleanly than anything divine."
