This is the new memoir from the poet Sally Read. I enjoy Read's poetry and was very pleased to read this. Here is a good religious poem.
Here is a good religious poem. And here is a collection based on her time as a psychiatric nurse. The Mary Pages tells the story of Read's obsession with the Virgin, from her atheistic childhood to her conversion she has always looked intently at the various depictions of Mary and thought about them as reference points for cultural, spiritual, and political matters.
The Mary Pages tells the story of Read's obsession with the Virgin, from her atheistic childhood to her conversion she has always looked intently at the various depictions of Mary and thought about them as reference points for cultural, spiritual, and political matters. As well as being a good memoir, The Mary Pages is full of art interpretation, religious thinking, discussions of relationships, motherhood, marriage, and so on, but in an entirely different way to the norm. There are other naked Madonnas: Edvard Munch painted the Virgin exposed in sexual ecstasy with a red halo.
