Laughter of Aphrodite
Reflections on a Journey to the Goddess
Description
Details
These essays by the influential feminst author of Diving Deep and Surfacing (LJ 2/15/80) deal, first, with her increasingly problematic dialogue with the God and institutions of the Judeo-Christian tradition and, second, with her emerging identification with the "Goddess" movement, which she finds more suitable to the spiritual needs of a nuclear age. Ending with her initiatory pilgrimage to the temple of Aphrodite, Christ effectively communicates her own journey and motivationsthough whether she will persuade readers who disagree is a different matter.
