An anthology of lesbian nuns talking about their life in the convent, their coming out, and their struggles to continue a spiritual life outside of the convent. I really like nun stories in general, but I think this was one of the best. There are a lot of very different stories here. People who go through similar experiences don't all come out of them with the same thoughts and feelings. Highly recommended for people interested in the quest for spirituality. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Out of print for two decades, Lesbian Nuns: Breaking Silence, the explosive international best-seller, is back with a new foreword analyzing the unprecedented impact it had on the lesbian community and mainstream culture. In new afterwords, the co-editors reveal how the book came to be and what happened to their lives when, for the first time in history, a lesbian book from a small publisher went mainstream. Each nun in these stories describes her individual and searing path in, or out of, the convent to discover and face the truth of herself. Still myth-shattering, the stories remind us of the courage required to live--and love--in congruence with our authentic selves. "Oblivious to the controversies that surrounded the initial publication of Lesbian Nuns: Breaking Silence, whether they originated within the Catholic Church or the lesbian feminist movement, thousands of readers across the decades have embraced the book and found their lives changed by its message of empowerment." - Joanne E. Passet, Ph.D., Professor of History, Indiana University East Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

Finally found a copy at the academic library this summer and ended up skimming it. Very interesting, though not having much familiarity with Catholicism or nuns made it more alien than I would have expected. Some of the most striking parts to me were reminiscences about everyday life in a convent. And... now I begin to understand that stereotype about ex-Catholics and BDSM, wow.
