Mary: A Life in Verse

By Patricia Monaghan

Poetry. "This remarkable, absorbing, and quietly revolutionary book constitutes the greatest poetic work and ultimate legacy of the legendary Patricia Monaghan, whose towering work as a scholar, writer, and organizer, breathtaking in its scope and ambition, brought the Goddess into women's lives over many decades. A farewell gift to the world from the deep soul of this brilliantly talented poet, begun in the 1980s and completed on her deathbed in 2012, Monaghan's magnum opus offers readers the sweet and sublime fruit of an attentive and courageous spiritual life. Deceptively simple and accessible in style, MARY: A LIFE IN VERSE is nothing less than a profound and heart wrenching feminist epic. It brings us a new Mary, a Mary for the world and for the ages, who stretches beyond the limits of the Christian story and partakes of something far more ancient, larger, and more glorious: Mary as a woman, and a goddess."
